Langhe — Dogliani — Dogliani (CN)
La Fusina
Since 1792, artisanal Dogliani wines in the heart of the Langhe.
The Story
Dogliani, at the heart of the south-western Langhe, lies in a natural basin surrounded by vineyard-covered hills. Wine culture has deep roots here, shaped by centuries of rural tradition.
La Fusina's history dates back to 1792, as shown by an old map found in the farmhouse attic. The Abbona family has lived and worked here since 1914.
Today the property covers 20 hectares, 18 of which are planted with vines. Tastings are guided directly by the family in the place where the wine is born.
