A Double Triumph of Italian Excellence at the 2026 Guide de L’Espresso
Two distinguished awards celebrating the artistry and excellence of Italian wine.
Our Barolo has received 110 points cum laude, the highest score in the 2026 Guide de L’Espresso, while our winemaker Andrea Delpiano was recognized as Winemaker of the Year. This double achievement reflects the vision, passion, and dedication that have guided our family for four generations. The award was accepted by Ester Canale Rosso during the presentation of the Guides, now in their 46th edition, on the stage of the Teatro degli Arcimboldi in Milan on October 23. Her name is featured on the historic label of the Barolo Vignarionda Ester Canale Rosso, from vines planted in 1946: a tribute to the history of this legendary vineyard and the excellence of a wine that fully expresses the character and nobility of its terroir. Now more than ever, we fully embrace the idea that wine and gastronomy are the Eighth Art, a symbol of Italian culture and soon to be recognized as part of the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. With pride and gratitude, we thank the Guide de L’Espresso for this double recognition, which honors our commitment to celebrating the land, authenticity, and the highest quality in our wines.
