ALTA LANGA DOCG
Luigi Coppo Pas Dosé
Luigi, who took over the winery after his father, Piero Coppo, found himself faced with a difficult period following the floods of 1948. His tenacity and determination pulled the winery through and even led to improvements in modern restructuring and the adoption of innovative technologies. This sparkling wine, in its pas dosé version, is dedicated to Luigi and to everyone who pushes ahead in the face of adversity.
