and love for wines together with the traditions of the Langhe
have always been deep-routed in the Cagliero family.
In fact, the Cagliero is one of the oldest family of wine growers
of the Barolo region. Historical documents dating back to the
years 1500 prove it.
At the beginning of the last century because of the terrible deseases
of the vineyards, the family Cagliero, as well as many other wine
growers, was forced to abandon their beloved but miserly estate
to go and seek fortune in town.
In
spite of all, during that period, uncle Gian Battista with love
and heart took care of the vineyards of the Cagliero family at
Barolo.
Because the work in town turned out to be a success, Mario Cagliero
head of the new generation, felt the necessity to return to the
roots of the Langhe. He wanted to rediscover the peasant and family
identity of the wine grower which had never been forgotten.
This was the start of a long and difficult way which head to the
reconstruction of the old estate of the Cagliero in order to enjoy
again the family traditions of Barolo.
