Château Vieux Winery
Wine - Pont-Saint-MartinChâteau Vieux is a winery in Pont-Saint-Martin managed by two young cousins of the same age, Sara and Marco, who define themselves as being united just like siblings. After completing their studies, which had nothing to do with the world of agriculture, in 2019 they decided to establish the winery, and they gave it the name that their great-grandfather, Alessandro Manganone, used to refer to the “homemade wine”, which is precisely Château Vieux.
Therefore, they merged their grandparents’ vineyards and obtained 7,000 square meters which they have worked with great passion and tenacity; then in 2021, they renovated the old family winery by adapting it to all the needs of a productive winery and also managing to obtain a “crotta” devoted only to ageing in wood.
As of now, with the help of family members united by a passion for wine-growing, they manage about 3 hectares of vineyards.
