Poderi e Cantine Oddero is one of the most historic estates in Barolo, with winemaking roots dating back to the late 18th century. The tradition of bottling wines under the Oddero name began in 1878, a pioneering move by Giacomo Oddero that laid the foundation for a legacy now upheld by the seventh generation. Located in Santa Maria di La Morra, the estate spans approximately 35 hectares, of which 16.5 are planted with Nebbiolo for Barolo and Barbaresco. Oddero’s vineyards include prestigious crus such as Brunate, Bussia Vigna Mondoca, Rocche di Castiglione, Villero, Vignarionda, and Gallina—recognized among the region’s finest.
The winery practices certified organic viticulture and avoids chemical herbicides, choosing mechanical methods instead. Winemaking combines tradition and sustainability: aging takes place in large oak barrels from Austria, France, and Slovenia, and the modern cellar, built in 2015, is designed with solar-powered energy efficiency. Today, Maria Cristina Oddero, her son Pietro, and niece Isabella lead the estate, continuing a legacy of quality and authenticity rooted in the Langhe hills.
