Grandfather Giuseppe satated it all in 1938 and from that day to this the centre is a producer of local foods and wines of the highest quality.
Today the centre is run by grandson Paolo Ghiddi who, as part of his search for ever higher quality has turned the whole of his cultivation over to biological produce (guaranteed and certified by the ICEA Surroundings Ethics Institute).
Paolo, after a recent restoration has founded the ‘Agriturismo’ ,
reinventing this former convent as a series of mini apartments and independent bedrooms that
offer their ‘resident guest’ a tranquil stay in a an atmosphere of the past in the cradle of the
vine covered countryside.
Write to Paolo.
The restaurant offers a simple but carefully chosen menu of Italian Everyday Cooking which make the most of the local produce and wines produced on Paolo Ghiddi’s vineyards.
