The Azienda Agricola Sordo Giovanni is to be found in the heart of the well-known Barolo region, in the municipality of Castiglione Falletto – just few kilometers away from Alba, in the province of Cuneo. Giorgio the third generation of a family who has been tending and producing wines for more than a century.

53 hectares, spreaded out in the municipalities of Castiglione Falletto, Serralunga d’Alba, Monforte d’Alba, Barolo, Novello, La Morra, Verduno, Grinzane Cavour and Vezza d’Alba. Sordo is the only existing winery which can boast 8 different kinds of Barolo – the crus – whose vineyards are located in the areas of 5 different municipalities in the Barolo wine district.    

A huge cellar – 111 big barrels from 50 to 120 hl – to ensure a perfect maturation and aging of the wine. Big barrels, made with Slavonian oak, are the secret of this centenary winery: this wood – thanks to its gentle feature – is not invasive with the wine which keeps its authentic taste so that what you will find in your glass is the real taste of our terroir. This is what tradition means – to carry on an habit that our ancestors tought us – just like the Sordo family has been doing for more than a 100 years. 

Since 2014 Sordo built a new cellar with a amazing tasting room, a showroom – where you can discover and buy all the amazing wines with all the ranges of Barolo until 1990. 

A guide will take you into the Sordo world showing you all the processes of the production walking through the big Slavonian oak barrels, running down at 12 meters underground to, following the tunnel where big bottle formats are aging, all the way down to the tasting room – where a breathtaking view on the Langhe is waiting for you.
