LO ZOCCOLAIO | Piemonte

Table 7

The Lo Zoccolaio tree is a great white poplar that sprouts two trees from the same roots. It is known as the tree of life, or as a physical representation of good and evil. The double tree harks back to the inverted tree of the Jewish and Indian traditions, which depict the tree as having roots in the spiritual world, and foliage in the known world. Lo Zoccolaio produces only red wines, made from grapes from their own vineyards located in Barolo, Monforte, Novello and Verduno. The vineyards face southwest on the coast of the Bricco of Barolo. Here, wine is never just a product, a merchandise, a fashion but each bottle contains the history of its population and its territory.
