Located south of Barolo, Dogliani is home to the finest terroir for dolcetto in the Langhe.
Proprietor Nicoletta Bocca established San Fereolo in 1992, gathering parcels over time and converting them to biodynamics.
The domaine now covers 12 hectares and includes vines dating from 1936, while the youngest vines were planted in 1978.
A proponent of ‘slow wine’, she is one of only a few producers who age their dolcetto before release, challenging the notion of dolcetto as a wine to drink young.
The ultimate homage to the grape is the flagship ‘San Fereolo’, which spends 3 years in cask and up to 4 years in bottle before release.
