Piedmont Wine Tastings: Discover Tenuta La Pergola
If you're looking for a unique Piedmont wine tasting experience, you can't miss Tenuta La Pergola. This historic winery, located in Cisterna d'Asti in the heart of Roero, was founded in 1903 by Grandpa Tony, who began cultivating the first vines for personal consumption.
In the 1980s, Tenuta La Pergola became a full-fledged wine producer. Since 2001, the company has been led by Alessandra Bodda, representing the third generation. The production primarily focuses on indigenous Piedmontese grape varieties, from which the Tradition and Prestige wine lines are born.
In recent years, the children Emanuele, Martina, and Moreno have also become active members of the company, introducing new wines with the MINIFIOR line. The company's philosophy is to make the consumer feel at home wherever they taste Tenuta La Pergola wine.
Our winery is open to wine tourists, allowing them to personally meet our family and share our passion.
