The winery
After five centuries and fifteen generations of growers, Mossi 1558 keeps a living heritage of people, vines and Colli Piacentini flavour. On the hills of Ziano Piacentino it farms native Barbera and Croatina for reds, Ortrugo and Malvasia di Candia Aromatica for whites, and the rare Malvasia Rosa. Since 2014 Marco Profumo has led the estate with the same family passion. Visits include the Museo Contadino; tastings with local DOP foods are by appointment.
