Storia
Filippo Cappellano founded the family estate after assembling approximately 150 Piedmontese giornate, about 60 hectares.
In 1889 Giovanni Cappellano’s vineyard received a bronze medal at the Paris Universal Exhibition. Giuseppe Cappellano, a pharmacist, developed the family Barolo Chinato recipe.
The estate is now continued by the family through its wines from Gabutti and the inherited Barolo Chinato preparation.
Terroir
The estate’s principal vineyard is Gabutti in Serralunga d’Alba, a site associated with structured, long-lived Nebbiolo.
Vinificazione
The family works its estate vineyards in Gabutti.
The current public site focuses on the individual identity and tasting character of the wines rather than detailed technical protocols.
Filosofia
The estate rejects rigid stylistic labels and preserves family practices through direct work in the vineyard and cellar.
