Borgo del Tiglio

Borgo del Tiglio is owned by Nicola Manferrari, who took over after his father Giuseppe passed away on July 23, 1981, when the family farm had less than 3 hectares of vineyards. Part of the Brazzano estate has been cultivated as a vineyard since at least the 18th century.

The Brazzano estate covers approximately 6 hectares, with four planted to vineyards. The Ca' delle Vallade estate covers around 5 hectares, half of which is vineyards, acquired between 1987 and 1989, while the Ruttars estate covers around 5 hectares, with 2.5 hectares planted to vineyards, acquired in 1989. Fertilizers are not used on mature vines, full grass cover is employed, and grapes are harvested exclusively by hand into small crates. Borgo del Tiglio predominantly produces white wines, fermented in small wooden barrels and aged on the lees for nine to ten months. Its wines include Ronco della Chiesa, first produced in 1982.
