Description
History
The estate has its roots in the Canavese area, with a history that began at the dawn of the twentieth century. It was Giovanni Tinetti, once a tanner, who started this business by purchasing a few hectares of land and undertaking the winemaking activity. The property has been passed down within the family, until reaching the current leadership of Antonino Iuculano Mamao, husband of Domenica Roletto, granddaughter of the founder. Surrounded by morainic hills that form a natural amphitheater.
