Historical Notes on the Valfieri Winery
In 1961, Rosangela Clerici Riccadonna (belonging to one of the oldest Piedmontese families of wine production), founded the VALFIERI winery in Alba.
Later, the Valfieri headquarters was moved to Costigliole d 'Asti, in the heart of one of the most prestigious wine-growing areas in the region and her children Angelo and MariaChiara took over the management of her.
The acquisition of the Grom and Martinetti business unit
In 2020, Valfieri becomes part of the Mura Mura family, through the acquisition of the brand by Federico Grom and Guido Martinetti.
This operation also made it possible to acquire the license to vinify the crus of Barbaresco and Barolo in Costigliole.
The interpretation
Valfieri wants to be a more pop interpretation of Piedmontese wines for Mura Mura. By keeping fixed the cornerstones of the pursuit of excellence and absolute quality, inherent in Mura Mura's DNA, some processes that lead to the production of Valfieri brand wines have been simplified.
The possibility has therefore opened up to use grapes from non-owned vineyards, alongside those from the Mura Mura vineyards, but not yet suitable for the wines of the two top-of-the-range lines (Rigore and Fantasia).
Thus was born the Rosato di Valfieri, the first bottled wine, simple, fresh and perfect for the summer that has just begun, and the Barbera d’Asti which will be available this autumn.
