Degli Azzoni Avogadro
The story of our presence in La Rotta is one that could be defined as love at first sight. Our grandparents, Counts of the Azzoni Avogadro, moved here from the Veneto in the early years of the twentieth century . They were captivated by this property which they saw while traveling through the area by train. Our cultivation has always been based on the utmost respect for nature. We mainly use natural fertilization systems and non-invasive techniques to protect our crops. These efforts demonstrate our commitment to protecting the natural environment and are reflected in the quality of the grapes we bring to the cellar.
