Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of wines are Schiavenza known for?

Schiavenza is best known for producing traditional Barolo wines, crafted from Nebbiolo grapes grown in Serralunga d'Alba, one of Barolo’s most prestigious subregions. These wines are characterised by their structure, intense aromas, and ability to age beautifully. Schiavenza’s Barolos typically offer deep flavours of cherry, plum, and rose, with notes of earth, spice, and a signature minerality from Serralunga’s unique soils. In addition to Barolo, Schiavenza also produces Dolcetto and Barbera, which display a vibrant fruit-forward profile. The winery’s dedication to traditional winemaking methods, including extended ageing in large oak casks, results in wines that authentically reflect Piedmont’s terroir and the heritage of Barolo.

Where are Schiavenza wines made?

Schiavenza wines are produced in Serralunga d'Alba, a renowned village in Italy’s Piedmont region within the Barolo DOCG. This area is celebrated for its mineral-rich soils and favourable climate, offering ideal conditions for cultivating Nebbiolo. Located in the eastern part of Barolo, Serralunga’s steep, south-facing slopes allow grapes to ripen slowly, developing depth, complexity, and natural acidity. Schiavenza’s vineyards benefit from these conditions, allowing for the production of Barolo with structure and longevity. The winery remains committed to traditional practices, including organic vineyard management and ageing in large oak casks, which help preserve the distinct characteristics of the terroir, creating wines that are true to their origins.

What are the best Schiavenza wines?

Among Schiavenza’s most acclaimed wines, the Barolo Broglio and Barolo Prapò are particularly noteworthy. Barolo Broglio is known for its elegance and complexity, with layers of dark fruit, spice, and firm tannins, making it an excellent choice for ageing. Barolo Prapò is another standout, showcasing floral notes, red berry, and earthy undertones, with a refined structure that represents Serralunga d'Alba’s distinctive terroir. These Barolos exemplify Schiavenza’s commitment to quality and tradition, with each bottle capturing the essence of Piedmont’s heritage. Additionally, their Dolcetto and Barbera wines offer a more approachable, fruit-forward experience, perfect for exploring the range and diversity of Schiavenza’s portfolio.

Are Schiavenza wines affordable?

Schiavenza wines are positioned within a premium range, reflecting the quality, craftsmanship, and heritage associated with traditional Barolo production. While some of the top Barolos, such as Barolo Broglio and Barolo Prapò, are priced higher due to their ageing potential and complexity, Schiavenza also offers more accessible options, including their Dolcetto and Barbera wines. These provide an introduction to the winery’s style without the investment of Barolo, offering good value for those seeking authentic Piedmont wines. Schiavenza’s dedication to traditional methods and sustainable practices further enhances the quality and character of each wine, making them a worthwhile choice for wine lovers interested in exploring the classic Barolo style.
