Cantina Del Glicine: A Historic Winery in Neive
Experience centuries of Piedmontese winemaking at this historic Neive winery, known for its Barbaresco and charming cellars.
Cantina Del Glicine is located in Neive, one of the villages in the Langhe region. This winery boasts a history dating back to 1582, with its cellars once belonging to the noble Dal Pozzo della Cisterna family. Today, Cantina Del Glicine produces a range of wines, including Barbaresco, from vineyards in the surrounding area. The winery's cellars, built with brick and stone, extend beneath the main house and garden. Inside, barriques and barrels age the wines. Visitors can explore the cellars and sample the winery's production, including Arneis, Moscato d'Asti, Dolcetto d'Alba, Nebbiolo d'Alba, Barbera d'Alba, and Barbaresco. Adriana Marzi and Roberto Bruno took over Roberto's family winery more than 30 years ago, leaving their city life in Milan. The village of Neive, with its tower and two castles, has vineyards with south-west exposure and white and dried land.
