In 2019, together with Monica Pedrotto, life – partner and co-creator of the project, the adventure of IParcellari begun. From the meeting with Agostino Malvicino, at the time director of Produttori di Govone, the project of enhancing the 300 ha area owned by the members through a Parcel selection of the best vineyards to produce wines of the highest quality from Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, territories under the preservation label of UNESCO started up. The project was born in the vineyard named Bricco Pizzo in Cioccaro di Penango- Asti, where Davide was in the role of Head of Sommeliers until January 2021 for Locanda del Sant’Uffizio of Enrico Bartolini, a one Michelin starred restaurant at the time, currently upgraded to two stars of the international award. From here it all starts (started): Davide and Agostino begun to study the map of vineyards and their Parcels, analyzing soils and clones of the grapes. With a cooperation and the focused work Claudio Dacasto, local wine-maker, Parcels of Barbra, Grignolino, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Albarossa and Nebbiolo were identified as eligible to produce wines capable of expressing the most out of the terroirs of the three selected sites: Portacomaro, Montegrosso d’Asti and Govone.
From this idea our motto- ONE VINEYARD, ONE PLOT, ONE WINE- was born.
In the beginning of 2022, Maurizio Gily joined the team as an agronomist and oenologist consultant. The goal was to improve the management of the vineyards for better facing the challenges of climate change and search for new Parcels to involve in the project and new wines to produce.
