Basic Info

Adriana Marzi and Roberto Bruno founded this boutique winery in Neive’s Old Town in 1980. Wisteria (“glicine” in Italian) colorfully decorates the winery’s courtyard and garden. Beyond its functionality, the winery’s cellar, which dates as far back as 1582, is of great historical value to Barbaresco. With remarkable bottlings from the crus of Currà and Marcorino, Glicine has brought renown to these small vineyards of Neive. Perhaps of even greater curiosity is the estate’s Barbera d’Alba, which is co-fermented with 15 percent Nebbiolo to produce a one-of-a-kind bottling.
