"The mineral composition of the porphyritic soil together with the characteristic structures of the Nebbiolo grapes allow “Boca” to become a full, expressive wine. Its flavour reminds one of well-matured forest fruits, violets, tobacco and dried herbs with hints of balsam and citrus fruits. Power and a silky elegance will develop in the mouth, fascinating and playful, with a slightly noble and bitter final note. The vast complexity of taste allows one to discover new facets over and over again." - Le Piane


Our wines start from a meticulous selection in the vineyard during the harvest with highly educated staff who bring to the cellar only the best bunches already cleaned of each imperfect berry.


This gives us the opportunity to make wines in the most natural way possible by following them with our taste and sensitivity in all their details, to produce balanced, harmonious wines with great potential.



I had the opportunity to become acquainted with the wine producing region of «Boca» in 1988 as well as with Antonio Cerri, one of the last local wine-growers and was immediately fascinated by the uniqueness and the beauty of the vineyards on the hilly ground near Boca, and by the sumptuousness of its wines as well. It really was love at first sight, and a love that has not waned over the years.

The wines that we have been producing proved, from the start and more and more over the years, that we are on the right track. They show a huge potential. All this encourages me in creating something unique in Boca. Continuous effort is required to produce wines with strong character from this terroir: wines with a high degree of recognisability, a maximum of concentration together with elegance and finesse, with a complexity of depth and aroma suitable for storage and maturation.
