Elio Filippino

Elio Filippino produces Nebbiolo-based wines from Piemonte in northern Italy, the region's historic heartland for this demanding variety. The winery's portfolio centers on two of Piemonte's most prestigious expressions: Barolo and Barbaresco. The Castiglione Falletto Barolo and Riserva Barolo—both pure Nebbiolo—represent the winery's work with Barolo's structure and aging potential, while the San Cristoforo Barbaresco offers the elegance characteristic of its appellation. These wines have been assessed by major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Decanter, and Falstaff. Nebbiolo demands precise site selection and winemaking discipline; Elio Filippino's focus on single-vineyard and reserve expressions reflects the variety's need for ideal terroir and extended aging to develop its characteristic tar, rose, and leather notes.
