Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo
An organic, everyday red blend from Piedmont, Italy, designed to be approachable and fruit-driven. Located in Santa Maria di La Morra, Figli Luigi Oddero is a historic pillar of Piedmont, established as an independent estate in 2006 following a split of the original 18th-century family holdings. Under the leadership of Luigi’s widow, Lena, and their children, the winery has gained significant acclaim for its traditionalist philosophy and the expertise of renowned winemaker Dante Scaglione.
The winemaking approach is intentionally low-intervention, utilizing spontaneous fermentation in cement tanks and aging in large, neutral Slavonian oak botti to ensure the terroir and fruit purity remain the focal point of every bottle. The estate spans 32 hectares of prime vineyards, including prestigious crus like Vignarionda in Serralunga d’Alba and Rocche Rivera in Castiglione Falletto. Since 2014, the family has farmed these plots organically, prioritizing soil health and biodiversity through sustainable practices like cover-cropping and manual harvesting.
