Produced from Cortese grapes from a small block of old vines grown on an outcrop of iron-rich (Terrarossa) clay soil which gives structure and minerality to the wine.

About Il Galletto

Brand Story

In 1973, Ida Cozzio and Livio Lorenzi purchased La Zerba, a country estate in Ligurian-Piedmont Apennines,
amongst the beautiful green hills of Gavi. The vineyards extend over 12 hectares (30 acres), surrounding the cellar. At 1,476 feet above sea level, they yield crisp white wines with zesty, mineral characteristics. The winery fully converted to organic viticulture with the 2015 harvest.
