Colli Tortonesi Timorasso DOC “Fausto” 2016 Vigne Marina Coppi

Vigne Marina Coppi came into existence in August, 2003 the year in which Francesco decided to come back to Castellania driven by a passion for cycling and a love for the beautiful landscapes.

The vineyard is only a few hectares, the size of a typical family-run farm: this allows us to grow and harvest directly, thus focussing on quality throughout the process.

The choice of such dark grapes as Barbera, Nebbiolo, Croatina and the white Favorita and Timorasso grapes symbolises our close link with the Piemontese tradition and our will to make unique wines.

Timorasso has been cultivated in this area since the middle ages and is the hallmark of this corner of Piemonte.

Barbera, one of our favourite red varieties, has always been cultivated in the Tortonese area.

These wines are the result of modern, careful and respectful winemaking based on local knowledge of the peculiarities of the area. Productions is only about 25.000 bottles per year and can be called ‘’artisanal’’. This allows us to manage directly each step of the process and produce wines that reflect our will and personality and the strength of the land.

The human factor is the key to the philosophy of this winery and is only by understanding Francesco, a true viticulturist, that you can also understand the wines and their relationship with the market. His vineyard and ethical choices are essential to the production of high quality grapes and great wines.

His wife Anna, mother of their three daughters, has been on his side since the first harvest in 2005 and contributes to the management of the property providing that value that only a woman can add. Giovanni and Marina, Francesco’s parents contribute to the workload, adding that wisdom and experience that you only achieve in the older age.
