History

The farm appears in the land registers in 1826 and has been in the Scaglione family for generations, its stone cellars dating to the late 1700s.

In 1985, encouraged by Giacomo Bologna, the estate revived the raisining of Moscato and made the passito Piasa Rischei.

Giovanni Scaglione runs the estate, which lies within a protected nature oasis.
