Torre Fornello

Torre Fornello is a beautiful winery located in the heart of the Piacenza hills. Its history dates back to 1028, when Deacon Gerardo bequeathed some land to a Piacenza noblewoman. In the following centuries, a lime and brick kiln was built in the area, hence the name ‘Fornello’, as was the tower erected in the 15th century to defend the feud. Recent history, on the other hand, began in 1998 with Enrico Sgorbati who started the production of high quality wines at Torre Fornello. The vineyards, which are exclusively owned, are cultivated with varieties that reflect the richness of the local viticulture. In particular with Barbera, Bonarda and Croatina, typical of the Piacenza area, which produce robust and intense red wines. However, there is also no lack of white grape varieties such as Ortrugo, an indigenous grape appreciated for its freshness and versatility. The winery is characterised by modern and technologically advanced spaces, although the wines are then aged in the historic cellars dating back to the 14th and 15th centuries, where temperature and humidity remain constant throughout the year.
