San Silvestro wines are singularly controlled, in the vineyard and in the cellar. For this reason, during the last years, the best regions have been selected. Every wine is produced by following the coherence in the quality, which is our essence.
Cantine San Silvestro are located in the territory of the Comune of Novello.
It mainly produces the leading Piedmontese Doc and Docg red wines, with a storage capacity in a controlled microclimate of around 400,000 bottles within a total surface area of over 5,000 square metres.
The grapes vinified by Cantine San Silvestro are mostly grown in the Langhe, and from vineyards to be found in the Roero and the Monferrato.
Today, San Silvestro represents the continuation of a project begun by Giovanni Sartirano, and carried forward through four generations.
Over the years the firm – run today by cousins Paolo and Guido Sartirano – has gradually expanded beyond the local market, and now the production of Bussia estate in the area of Monfoalso took over the Tenuta Ghercina estate, which includes vineyards in the villages of Barolo and Novello, where the headquarters of the company are now located.
