The Producer

About La Stoppa

La Stoppa, a venerable estate with roots dating back over a century, resides in Northern Italy's Emilia-Romagna region, nestled in the Trebbiola Valley near the Trebbia river in Piacenza province. Spanning 58 hectares, with 30 dedicated to vines and 28 left untouched by human hands, its history unfolds in the nineteenth century when lawyer Giancarlo Ageno recognized its winemaking potential. The estate's wines, adorned with intriguing names like Bordò, Bordò bianco, and Pinò, undergo vinification in steel and cement tanks after destemming. Riservas undergo extended aging in wooden barrels and tanks, followed by bottle maturation. Eschewing sulfites, La Stoppa relies on spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts at ambient temperatures.
