Expert's presentation

The geneology of the Moscone family is lost in history, but it is since 1877 with the birth of Giacinto that the dynasty links its name to the renowned Piedmontese wine.

Giacinto began his successful winemaking business in Monforte d'Alba, focusing on the quality of soils and grape varieties best suited to the region.

After his death in 1944, he was succeeded by his son Angelo, who continued the business, improving the quality of Moscone wine by taking advantage of the excellent quality of the soils and vines present in the Langhe area. A choice that with time and the right dedication bears fruit and allows the heirs Giacinto and Livio together with his wife Luciana and daughter Sara to take in hand a real treasure to cultivate and share with passion.
