We are pleased to invite you to Vinitaly 2026 from 12 to 15 April in Verona 

Two international previews:

Ruchè Riserva “Franco Morando” and Pas Dosé 140+1

Dear Friends of Wine,

There's a time of year when our work, passion, and anticipation come to life and transform into an experience to be savored . Vinitaly 2026 is that moment , and we're happy to invite you to share it with us from April 12th to 15th in Verona .

This year the event will have an even more special meaning: in addition to the presentation of our new vintages, we will unveil two international previews , which mark an important step in the journey of our winery .

The first is the Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato DOCG Riserva “Franco Morando” , dedicated to one of the key figures in Montalbera's history, the protagonist of the vision that guided the growth and identity of our company. A symbolic wine, which speaks of roots , territory , and memory .

The second is the Metodo Classico Pas Dosé 140+1 , an evolution of the 120+1, which elegantly expresses the time , precision and identity of Pinot Noir.

We'll be delighted to welcome you to discover these new wines together, toast the new vintages, and let ourselves be swept away by the flavors and stories each glass tells .

 From April 12 to 15, 2026
 Hall 10 - Stand G2

We look forward to seeing you in Verona.

Kind regards,

Montalbera

The new Montalbera stand concept awaits you at Vinitaly

Montalbera presents Riserva Franco Morando, a Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato DOCG Riserva that combines tradition, terroir, and a vision for the future . Born from a rigorous selection of historic vineyards located between Castagnole Monferrato, Montemagno, and San Vittore, in the heart of the Monferrato UNESCO World Heritage Site , this wine represents an ideal bridge between the winery's past and future, celebrating the grape variety's identity and the family's experience gained over a century .

With the Riserva Franco Morando , Montalbera reaffirms its production vision, focused on promoting Ruchè as a great Piedmontese red wine for aging, capable of combining territorial identity, winemaking rigor, and the family's historical memory . The winery's second Riserva after Il Fondatore , dedicated to the winery's grandfather and founder, this label confirms Montalbera's desire to preserve and innovate tradition , expressing the territory through wines of character and longevity.

With 140+1 , Montalbera presents one of the most ambitious expressions of its research into the Classic Method from Pinot Noir . Made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, this wine is the evolution of the 120+1 project and represents an extreme synthesis of time, technical precision, and territorial identity. The grapes are vinified purely, without final dosage , for a rigorous and authentic interpretation of the grape variety.

The 140+1 project is based on over 140 months of aging on the lees , to which the symbolically added “+1” is added: the day dedicated to tasting and defining the final blend . Each bunch is carefully selected and subjected to a delicate and progressive cleaning process , divided into multiple phases of washing and soaking, followed by complete drying. This method is designed to preserve the integrity of the grapes and obtain an extremely clean must , capable of precisely expressing the varietal aromatic profile.

We look forward to welcoming you to our new products.
