Founded in 1920 in Nizza Monferrato, Piedmont, Scrimaglio is renowned for its exceptional Barbera d'Asti and Barolo wines. The family’s winemaking tradition in the Monferrato region dates back to the 17th century when they first settled in what was then known as Escrimeaux.

In the 1980s, Scrimaglio played a pivotal role in revitalizing Barbera d'Asti, emphasizing traditional winemaking methods to highlight the grape’s natural character. Their efforts helped establish the Nizza DOCG subzone in 2014, further elevating the region’s reputation.

In 2017, Scrimaglio joined the prestigious Terre da Vino group, with Bruno Cordero leading the winemaking team. This collaboration merges time-honored winemaking techniques with modern innovations, resulting in wines that beautifully express the unique terroir of Piedmont. Today, Scrimaglio continues to craft wines that reflect the perfect balance between tradition and innovation.

Exploring Scrimaglio: Vineyards, Cellar, and Wines

Scrimaglio’s Terroir: Where Soil and Climate Converge

The Scrimaglio vineyards span approximately 494 acres, where a carefully curated selection of grape varieties thrive, including Barbera, Nebbiolo, Cortese, Arneis, and Chardonnay. Nestled between 250 and 350 meters above sea level, the vineyards are blessed with a unique terroir, characterized by clay and limestone soils that contribute to the depth and complexity of the wines. The continental climate, enriched by the moderating influences of the nearby Tanaro River, creates the perfect conditions for growing grapes with exceptional character and balance.

The Art of Complexity: Scrimaglio’s Oak-Aged Masterpieces

Scrimaglio embraces traditional winemaking methods, allowing for long maceration periods and aging in large oak barrels to deepen the wines' complexity and character. Red wines such as Barolo and Barbaresco are carefully aged in bottle, ensuring they reach their full maturity and express their finest qualities before being released.

Terrific terroir, savvy members, and cutting-edge science, top-quality wines is what sets this winery apart from others.
