His small winery of just four hectares lies in the heart of the Torrette production area, in Saint-Pierre, just outside Aosta.

The vineyards are all on the left-hand side of the Dora Baltea river at an altitude of 650 to 850 metres above sea level, therefore with perfect exposure to the south.

 

The winery was founded in 1997 by Maurizio Fiorano, who, in only a few years, has expanded and renewed the vineyards from 5.000 sqms to the current 40.000 sqms. All is newly equipped, but the method follows the vine and wine production tradition begun by grandfather Tinet in the ‘60s. It was originally meant for  producing wine for friends and family only.
