The Pico Maccario Estate is a prestigious emblem of Italian viticulture, nestled in the picturesque region of Asti. Occupying about 70 hectares of beautifully cultivated land, this family business of four generations bears the name of its founders, the brothers Pico and Vitaliano Maccario. In this vineyard, only the Barbera grape is cultivated, demonstrating an unwavering devotion to this remarkable fruit. The choice to cultivate only a single variety of grape bears witness to the Pico Maccario Estate's commitment to preserving the purity and authenticity of its wine. The aim is to produce wines that embody the richness and generosity of this Italian terroir, while respecting the typicity of this grape. The establishment draws its uniqueness from its innovative approach to winemaking. Despite its roots in tradition, the Pico Maccario Estate has managed to blend centuries-old expertise with modernity. Their perfectly conditioned cellar houses state-of-the-art technology, thus ensuring the highest quality and the greatest possible diversity of their Barbera wine. At the Pico Maccario Estate, nature and the landscape are treated with the utmost respect. The estate is a well-balanced ecosystem where, in addition to the vines, a variety of fruit trees and a hundred and twenty roses at the end of each vine row are found. These roses were traditionally "vine sentinels" used to signal the onset of diseases. When visiting the Pico Maccario Estate, one is struck by the beauty of the vineyards, the breathtaking view of the Monferrato hills and the relaxing atmosphere that prevails there. Tasting the wines in their authentic wine cellar is an intoxicating experience.
