Producer Details
The Tenuta Olim Bauda brand was born in 1961, the year Agostino Bertolino purchased the historic mansion in the heart of Monferrato. The first references to the name Bauda appear in writings from 1220, and it was the ancient name of the family that owned this land for centuries.
From being the summer residence and musical salon of tenor Giovanni Battista De Negri to a refuge and infirmary for wounded soldiers during World War II to becoming a wine cellar, the estate has experienced several changes of ownership and different uses over the centuries.
Even today, two 19th-century inscriptions on the pillars of the gate remind us of the old and “new” name:
Villa Denegri, Olim Bauda
