Farming vines on the south-east facing slopes around Monforte's Perno hamlet since 1900, the Pressanda family historically sold off most of the grapes grown at their 7.5ha estate, keeping just a small portion of fruit to make wine for personal consumption.
This has all changed since sisters Alice and Cristina began taking over from their father Bruno, and they are now using traditional Piedmontese techniques to craft classically styled wines that take inspiration from the Barolos of Bartolo Mascarello and Burlotto.
Production is tiny – just two casks of Barolo were made, in addition to a fleshy, complex Dolcetto and a beautifully poised Barbera.
After native yeast fermentation in stainless steel, the Barolo is matured in Slavonian oak casks for 20 months and then in bottle for a further year.
Immediately entering Piedmont's top ranks, Ca' di Press is an unmissable addition to the cellars of Barolo lovers and collectors.
