FIGLI LUIGI ODDERO


You can not look to the future if you do not know your past.


Our company was founded thanks to Luigi Oddero, winemaker and great curiosity and cultured man, deeply and viscerally love with his land, The Langa. A country gentleman, as defined by Mario Soldati in his interview of 1975 reported in the book Vino al Vino, which was contained in the peasant atmosphere and the long-term vision, representing the fusion of the energies of the past and the desire to look to the future.
Increasing tension between progress and preservation charismatic figure, mindful of the technical innovations but without forgetting their family history started in 800 by grandparents, already producers and wine merchants.


Louis, in the vineyard, while experimenting and entering international varieties, always gave preference to the vine Langa Prince, Nebbiolo and maintained all the other traditional grapes of the area, such as Barbera, Dolcetto and Freisa. In the recent past he preferred to follow the path of traditional Barolo wine-making, while still using the large barrels.
Luigi was not only a grower: the passion for the land led him also to the cultivation of hazelnut, Peach and other fruits typical of the Langa.


Today, after the death of Louis, the company is run by his wife Lena and his children, Mary and John, whose names are in honor grandparents, those who started the centuries-old history of the company. Here too, the tradition becomes continuity, with a thread that links early '800, present and future.
