History

Cascina Boccaccio has roots at Tagliolo Monferrato from 1875, when Ileana's great-grandfather Celso laid the foundations of the cellar; it is a young reality run by Ileana and Roberto.

On the white marly earth of the Ovadese it makes an organic Dolcetto di Ovada, the Celso, where the sea breeze aids the ripening.
