Monsupello Eredi di Boatti Carlo

Our story — Once upon a time, and still today. It is 1893 when the Boatti family, in the municipality of Oliva Gessi in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese, writes the finest and most important page in the history of Italian sparkling wine: at Cà del Tava, one of the cellar's great crus, the bond between Monsupello, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay is sealed. To dare what is new, to dream it, imagine it and make it real: in the name of the father, Carlo Boatti, and today with his children Pierangelo and Laura. With different sensibilities and aptitudes, they are interpreters of future horizons, in the contemporary character of their sparkling wines. The Company — Once upon a time, and still today. It is 1893 when the Boatti family, in the municipality of Oliva Gessi in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese, writes the finest and most important page in the history of Italian sparkling wine: at Cà del Tava, one of the cellar's great crus, the bond between Monsupello, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay is sealed. An indissoluble pact in the name of excellence. A commitment that becomes alliance and promise. To dare what is new, to dream it, imagine it and make it real: in the name of the father, Carlo Boatti, and today with his children Pierangelo and Laura, guardians of his philosophy. With different sensibilities and aptitudes, they are interpreters of future horizons, in the contemporary character of their sparkling wines: they look “beyond”, tracing paths and spaces of dialogue with new worlds, with the complicity of their oenologist. The Carlo Boatti estate has selected the best plots in the Oltrepò, building a large estate vineyard of 50 hectares — valuable resources that supply around half of the grape requirement, ensuring the autonomy and sustainability of the family business. For Monsupello, the environment and biodiversity come first: excellence is achieved through cover-cropping and green-manuring practices in the vineyard, sowing legumes and returning nutrients and nitrogen to the soil to increase organic matter and generate constant biological activity in the ground. The soil is fertile, with low-yield cultivation methods, and ripening takes place in full respect of each individual vineyard, without haste, so that nature is always an ally. The perfection of Monsupello's vineyards is beauty for the landscape and harmony for the territory.
