Ballabio Winery Information

Born at the beginning of the century, in 1905, Ballabio is one of the most long-established Italian wineries and one of the oldest in the Oltrepò Pavese region. We produce wines that express and exalt the natural distinctiveness of our vineyards. The perfect balance between modern and traditional criteria yields the highest quality production. The estate is located in the first hills of Casteggio "the ancient Clastidium" 20 km from Pavia and only 40 km from Milan, Italy. In keeping with its surroundings, it spreads out over a total of 80 km, 60 of which consist of the “Ballabio Vineyards”, planted with the most noble cultivar in the area: Croatina, Merlot, Pinot Nero, Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay and partly with olive groves containing cultivar such as Leccino, Frantoio and Bianchera. The Balestrieri, Morone, Mairano, Campone and Tronconero vineyards cover the rest of the area. Ballabio acts as guardian of the traditions of its land, privileging the achievement of superb quality over quantity. The Ballabio wines are the product of a close collaboration between our oenologist and agronomist and contain all the characteristics of the land of their roots.
