Circa 30%, (about
33 hectares) of the entire vineyard hill area used for the production
of GATTINARA DOCG belongs to Azienda Vitivinicola Nervi; the property
includes splendid vineyards, most of them in the famous "Molsino"
area.

The Winery, founded in the early 1900s by Luigi Nervi, was acquired
in 1991 by the Sitindustrie Group, important multinational holding
company with seat in Valduggia (VC); it is currently the most important
centre for the production and marketing of Gattinara wine.
The ancient wine cellars and the building from the last century
that belong to Azienda Vitivinicola Nervi are located in the Town
of Gattinara.

perfectionist
oriented work. Here the grapes are vinified and
aged for a minimum period of three years in Slavonian oak casks.
The
production and commercial results are obtained through a unique
quality with a range of products highly selected in the continuous
search of the right balance between innovation and tradition.
Activity,
capability and experience of Nervi's vine-dressers, cellarmen,
oenologists and employees of Nervi brought the company to the
most important national and international rewards with great
commercial satisfaction. Among the national rewards we can mention:

At the beginning of 2005 Nervi joined its entrepreneurial competence and ability in the world of the wine with the ones of Malgrà, a young and innovative wine company based in Monferrato, creating a new subject, Tenute & Case Vinicole Italiane. This new established Group holds more than 150 hectars of vineyards and can offer the complete range or the most prestigious Piedmontese wines: Gattinara, Barolo, Barbaresco, Dolcetto, Grignolino and Gavi.
