Background

Founded in 1977 by the Rivetti family, La Spinetta is a renowned Italian winery in Piedmont, celebrated for its rich and expressive wines. Named after the local thorny bush, the winery began by producing Moscato d’Asti, a sweet and aromatic white wine that earned them industry acclaim. They later expanded into Barolo and Barbaresco, diversifying into red wines made from Nebbiolo, Barbera, and Sangiovese grapes.
