Bergaglio Pier Carlo

In the Ovada area, which encompasses 22 municipalities in the province of Alessandria, Bergaglio Pier Carlo interprets a single denomination: the Dolcetto di Ovada Superiore DOCG. Located in Capriata d'Orba, the entire production revolves around the Dolcetto grape variety, vinified according to the parameters of the Superiore type. The production regulations stipulate a minimum of 12.5% alcohol and at least twelve months of aging before release to the market. These technical constraints are not mere bureaucratic details; they are the tools by which Dolcetto di Ovada distinguishes itself from more immediate versions of the same grape. Prolonged aging builds a structured red wine, capable of depth and a more articulated reading of the terroir. Bergaglio works within this margin, where maturation transforms a grape often associated with youthful drinkability into a wine of greater ambition. The concentration on a single denomination defines the company's identity, linked to a corner of Piedmont less known than the Langhe but capable of its own recognizable expression.
