Azelia
Azelia Winery
The Azienda Agricola Azelia is located within the commune of Castiglione Falletto, a small town in the Langhe region, in the
heart of the area where Barolo is made. It was established in 1920 by Cavalier Lorenzo Scavino, great-grandfather of the present
owner Luigi Scavino, and at the beginning it was a small farm. Luigi Scavino’s grandfather, Alfonso, decided to vinify the grapes
from the estate vineyards and started bottling the wine. Thanks to Luigi’s father, Lorenzo, with perseverance and willpower, the
wines were for the first time exported.
Vineyards
Great care is given to the work in the vineyards. Most of the operations are carried out by hand.
Wine is made there from old vines which produce very few grapes. The low yields are further reduced through the green
harvest, indispensable to select fruits, to have a uniform ripening and an impeccable quality. It is fundamental the scrupulous
attention in the cellar with the respect for tradition and the extreme attention to details.
The vineyards are located in Castiglione Falletto, Serralunga d’Alba and Montelupo Albese.
