PECCHENINO – Dogliani Cuneo

OUR VINEYARDS

The vineyard is worked with the highest respect for nature, biodiversity and environment, by adopting a sustainable management in order to focus on the quality of grapes. Vineyards are usually kept grassed over to make the soil softer and prevent erosion. Every year organic fertilisation is carried out by burial and light tilling to encourage the accumulation of water necessary for vegetative development. In the fight against vine diseases, treatments are planned taking into account rainfall data, using copper sulphate against downy mildew and mineral sulphur against powdery mildew. All other work in the vineyard is carried out manually to exercise greater quality control.

OUR WINERY

The Pecchenino winery has always been a family business.
The first documents attesting the winemaking activity date back to the end of the 20th century, when the winery, managed by grandfather Attilio, had little more than 8 hectares. In the 1970s, the reins of the company passed into the hands of his son Marino and later, at the end of the 1980s in line with the generational changeover, his sons Orlando and Attilio took over the business.
