The history of the Chionetti family has been linked to the vine from the 19th century.The turning point came in 1912 when Giuseppe Chionetti bought the farm in a suitable area for vineyards in San Luigi in the town of Dogliani. Starting from this moment the Chionetti family linked it own name with the dolcetto wine they were selling to the biggest traders of the area.Gradually the sale of bottled wine, and consequently the Chionetti name, were established.Andrea then, the son of Quinto, decided to explore the potential of their vineyards and, as a result, they start to produce three crus: Sorì Briccolero, San Luigi, Vigna la Costa.
