Serradenari is located in La Morra and consists of 6.5 ha of vineyards and almost 12 ha of historical forest. The estate is strongly characterized by the presence of a wide, natural 300-year-old forest, the ideal breeding ground for white truffle.
The rows develop from an altitude of 410 mt above the sea level and achieve heights of up to 540 mt, in the Marassio parcel, which is among the highest vineyards in the Barolo appellation (DOCG).
Considering the natural vocation of the land, after retiring from his management role at Olivetti during the 70s, Giulia's grandfather explants the old vines with the aim to start cultivating white truffle artificially, right where today you can find the parcels providing the grapes for Barolo La Tartufaia. When Franco Negri dies in 2001, Giulia's father takes the decision of re-implanting vines and starting producing wines by the name of Serradenari.
After a period spent working in the biotech/investment field, in 2013 Giulia engages in her own small project in the estate. The following year, she starts following all the vineyard works as well as in-cellar processes and in 2015 she begins parcelling the different soils, vinifying the grapes coming from these different plots separately. In 2017, she finally takes over the totality of vineyard management and production. Today, Giulia Negri produces around 50.000 bottles per year, including Langhe Chardonnay, Langhe Pinot Nero, Langhe Nebbiolo, Barbera d'Alba and three different Barolo, namely La Tartufaia, Serradenari and Marassio.
