The first documents that talk about this company date back to 1682, the year in which a document dates back to the list of how many presses, barrels and vats were located inside the Castellengo crote.

Production continued without stopping until 1940 and then stopped until 1999, when the new owners took over the company.

The passion for the archaeological recovery of the ancient vineyards of the area has led them to the rediscovery and valorization of numerous micro-vineyards.
