Daniele Dinoia founded Villa Guelpa to create wines that express the rich and varied soils across his four hectares of vineyards in Alto Piemonte. He and his sons organically farm primarily Nebbiolo, Vespolina, and Erbaluce.
The mild and foggy winter brought nature to an early awakening which was heavily punished by a couple of frosts in April which put a strain on shoots and, in some cases, compromised their development. The very hot (since June) and very dry summer (with very little rain) certainly did not help from the point of view of development and therefore production. After 7 consecutive months with temperatures higher than usual, we finally had a cool and dry September with some storms which helped the perfect ripening of the few grapes we harvested and which will bring us more concentrated, important, and long-lived wines.
