LUIGI COPPO

___

The history of Coppo winery is inextricably wound with the wine history of Piedmont. It is closely linked to the development of the city of Canelli, known as the capital of Italian sparkling wine and one of Italy’s most important viticultural centers today.

Coppo’s history is one of tradition and courageous vision for the future, of sacrifice and innovation. It is a story of the unconditional love that Coppo has for their vines’ origins, for varieties that have always been cultivated in Piedmont, and for old family traditions.

The origins of the winery date back to 1892. For over 120 years, the family has remained the sole owner. Since the very beginning, the Coppo family has managed estate vineyards and bottled their own wine under the name of Coppo, making it one of the oldest family-run wineries in all of Italy.

In fact, in 2012, Unioncamere added the winery to the national register of historical businesses, highlighting its uninterrupted activity for over a century in the commodity market.

Coppo wines have always expressed Piedmontese wine tradition, and tell a story of hard work in the scope of one objective: excellence.

Coppo follows every stage of the winemaking process with passion and diligence from vine growers, specialized enologists, and expert vintners. Their goal is to guarantee maximum respect for the grape variety and for the environment, developing it so it best expresses its inherent characteristics.

Today, the major part of the winery’s production centers on Barbera, Metodo Classico sparkling wines, Chardonnay and Moscato d’Asti, Coppo’s Moscato d’Asti can take advantage of the “Canelli” mark, a recently created subzone that is prized for the excellent Moscato it produces.

The winery’s range of products includes some of the most classic DOCG Piedmontese wines, including Gavi and Barolo. Because of their historical importance, Coppo has the right and honor to make the prestigious Barolo outside of its zone of production.

Their history, Piedmontese pride, and pursuit of elegance are the distinctive emblems of the Coppo family in each of their products.
