In mouth, it is wide and silky with intense tannins and a well-balanced sapidity on the final.

For these characteristics, it is an excellent wine to drink with red meats dishes, game, cured meats and seasoned cheeses

The Schiavenza winery was founded in Serralunga in 1956.
The origin of the name has to be searched in the past; in fact in times past the Opera Pia Barolo owned both the domain and the lands, and sharecropper called “Schiavenza” in dialect, worked the vineyards. The winery was founded by Alessandria brothers and today is managed by the agronomist Luciano Pira, with his wife Maura and his brother-in-law Walter. In addition to the vineyards in Serralunga district, the winery owns some vineyards in the district of Monforte d'Alba: all of this are used for the production of important Piedmontese red wines.
