The new La Fenice winery is a callaborative venture between the Cavallero and Ghisolfi families, who have been growing Nebbiolo for hundreds of years on the property between the commune of Barolo and Monforte. La Fenice or the phoenix, was a mythical bird celebrated for its ability to rise alive from the ashes after its death. This name was chosen following the terrible fire that destroyed the historic family winecellar in January 2007.
