Welcome to Episode 1998 of On The Road Special Edition. Stevie Kim heads to Barbera D’Asti in northern Italy where she meets Federica Massimelli of Bersano Winery Discover the history of the ancient estate where the winery is located, the development of this extraordinary family winery, and the winemaking techniques involved in producing its famous wines. More about the winery: Since 1907, Bersano has had a vision: to preserve the best of the winemaking and convivial culture of Langhe and Monferrato and spread it throughout the world. It is an ambitious goal: for many, an impossible mission – for us, a promise to keep, day after day. It all started with Arturo Bersano and his boundless foresight. Upon his passing, the challenge passed to other hands, those of the Massimelli family: first Ugo, then, today, his daughter Federica, supported by her sisters and son. In the vineyard, in the cellar, in our museums: we focus everything on Piedmont. We do this by selecting and refining only the best bunches of native varieties from our 230 cultivated hectares - a winemaking heritage of inestimable value, a cross-section of Langhe and Monferrato that allows us to show the world the thousand faces of the territory with our wines. But not only that: we also do it by protecting the peasant memory in the historic museums of Nizza Monferrato and in the 10 owned farms, places with a centuries-long legacy, which collect all the richness of the most important chapters in the history of Italian wine; and promoting the conviviality that has always distinguished us, welcoming anyone who wants to discover the best of Piedmontese culture with us in our cellar. “A guarantee of lands, men and traditions”: we have believed in it for more than a century, we work there every day - to safeguard the icons of yesterday and create those of tomorrow.
