The Conterno Fantino farm, founded in 1982 by Claudio Conterno and Guido Fantino, now cultivates 27 hectares of vineyards divided between the four vines, Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto, Chardonnay, and produces 140 thousand bottles a year. Over time, the two founders have been joined with different roles by Alda, Fabio and Elisa Fantino. Soon it will be the turn of Noemi and Matteo Conterno. In addition, about ten employees work full-time in the company.
