The history of the Poderi (estates) Luigi Einaudi started in 1897, when Luigi Einaudi, still only 23 years old, acquired the farmhouse ‘San Giacomo’ in the burgh of Dogliani surrounded by 40 Piedmontese giornate of vineyards (40 acres). The family Einaudi inherited the passion of continuous improvement of their vineyards. |
11 farmhouses in the best position in Dogliani and Barolo, share the total area of the estate that is about 145 hectares, 104 of which are situated in the burgh of Dogliani, 7 in that of Barolo, on the hills of Cannubi and Terlo Vie Nuove, and 3 on the hills of Treiso. |
Since its foundation, the Poderi Einaudi has grown by acquiring numerous vineyards, always chosen respecting the rule that a great wine can only come from a great vineyard and great “terroir”; there is a clear example in one of the first acquisitions, the “cru San Luigi” in Dogliani and in one of the most recent, the “cru Cannubi” in Barolo. |
The Guest House has been created in an old home of the family Einaudi, maintaining intact the original structure and character of a private house. It is positioned alongside the Cantina of the Poderi Einaudi, in a magnificent situation on a gentle hillside of the Langa, surrounded by the imposing Maritime Alps. |
