Castello Di Stefanago - Organic & natural wines from Lombardy
Antonio and Giacomo Baruffaldi have long followed organic farming, striving to achieve healthy, natural grapes, that reflect the terroir on which they are grown.
A family long tradition
The Castello di Stefanago winery is a historic producer in the Oltrepo Pavese hills ( Lombardy) that has always been committed to producing local wines, gradually adopting more innovative and less interventionist winemaking techniques. The Baruffaldi family has been producing wine for five generations in the town of Borgo Priolo, in the province of Pavia,
Castello di Stefanago now owns 20 hectares of vineyards, located on clayey and sandy soils rich in chalk at an altitude of about 400 meters above sea level. They are characterised by perfect exposure to the sun, daily breezes and exceptional temperature ranges between day and night that allow the grapes to ripen perfectly.
Wines that represent their territory
Antonio and Giacomo have long chosen organic cultivation: a discreet and accurate work in the vineyard and in the cellar; the respect of the natural rhythms and the research of the ancient methods of winemaking, are the ingredients which charachterize and give personality to wines which “speak” of the territories whence they were born.
The cellars
The cellars are in the castle which still remains from the fourteenth century in the center of the property, around which there are about eighteen hectares of vines and 135 hectares of meadows, forests, orchards, and arable land.
Campo Castagna
Campo Castagna from Castello di Stefanago is a distinctive Pinot Nero, crafted with minimal intervention to showcase the pure expression of its terroir, offering elegance, depth, and a vibrant balance of fruit and earthiness.
