Beni di Batasiolo is a name synonymous with excellence and tradition in the heart of Italy’s esteemed Piedmont region. Since 1978, the Dogliani family has passionately tended to over 320 acres of prime vineyard land, allowing nature’s bounty to guide the creation of their exceptional wines.
The Dogliani family's journey in the Langhe district spans five generations, each dedicated to mastering the art of winemaking. The acquisition of the historic Kiola estate in 1978 marked a new era, expanding their holdings to nine prestigious estates. Today, Beni di Batasiolo encompasses some of the most coveted vineyards in Barolo, including the renowned crus: Cerequio, Bussia, Brunate, Briccolina, and Boscareto. These prized sites, designated as Menzioni Geografiche Aggiuntive (MGA), are celebrated for producing wines of unparalleled elegance and longevity. Batasiolo’s dedication to excellence has not gone unnoticed. Their wines have earned a place on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 list six times to date.
Barolo, often hailed as the "King of Wines," owes its majesty to the unique terroir of Piedmont. Beni di Batasiolo's vineyards benefit from an extraordinary combination of soil, climate, and topography, resulting in wines that are both noble and refined. Their Barolo is a testament to this terroir, offering a bold and intense expression of Nebbiolo that is both captivating and complex.
