Marisa
Bacher

Marisa is a native of Valsesia in northern Piedmont, where her family raised dairy cows at the foot of the majestic Monte Rosa, one of the Alps’ highest peaks. Her career path took her south to Barolo, where she has worked with Mario Fontana at Cascina Fontana in Castiglione Falletto since 2016. She had her eye on making her own wine from the start, and when an opportunity to rent a small plot of heirloom Dolcetto and Barbera vines in the neighboring town of Monforte came up two years ago, she jumped on it.
