Giovanni Manzone winery, celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2025, epitomizes a century of family dedication to traditional Barolo winemaking in Monforte d'Alba. Nestled in the high-elevation vineyards of the historic Barolo crus Gramolere and Castelletto, the estate cultivates Nebbiolo and other varieties like Barbera, Dolcetto, and the rare Rossese Bianco, benefiting from unique calcareous sandy soils and a microclimate that enhances grape quality. The winery embraces time-honored practices, including hand-harvesting and extended aging in neutral oak and concrete, while adapting sustainably to climate change challenges. Their flagship Barolo Riserva Cento Anni 2009 exemplifies their commitment to depth, complexity, and elegance. Through a balance of tradition and innovation, Giovanni Manzone continues to honor its rich heritage and terroir, producing distinctive, age-worthy wines that reflect the Langheâs enduring legacy.
