Cantina Patrunet
A name with deep roots
We love our name—a strong root that keeps us firmly grounded. Patrunet —“little master”: that’s what the locals called our great-great-grandfather, a simple farmer who married the only daughter of the family he worked for, back when the 20th century hadn’t even begun yet. We, too, feel like small landowners of these lands: not objects to be consumed, but assets to be safeguarded, made to flourish, and passed down through the generations.
Do you want to see our wine cellar?
It is a place where there is a lot going on, sometimes even all at the same time. It’s an open door on the town square. A large table for gathering and a fireplace for when you need a warm hug. It is a small pantry but from which great delights come out. It is the place where Claudio and Stefanino work to turn grapes into wine. It is a crutin of yeasteryeas, a place sheltered from the shadows where wine can rest quietly and children can explore the dark corners, creating adventures and mysteries.
At our winery, we’d love to welcome you and let you taste our wines and savor the local flavors. We can have a chat and pack up whatever you’d like to take home with you.
But we like to share another special place, when weather allows it. The Ciabòt is nestled among our most beautiful vineyards and has always been there, offering shelter and rest, just as it did when it was first built. Where people once sought shelter from bad weather and regained their strength after hard work in the vineyards, today we find refuge from the hustle and bustle and rediscover the joy of togetherness.
The consortium
We are members of the Roero Protection Consortiumbecause we believe in the power of collaboration. We enjoy working alongside other producers and growers to protect the vines and the wine—which, in the Roero hills, have always embodied culture, passion, and the pride of local farmers.
