The history of GranCollina, now in its fifth generation, began in 1890, among the Terre Alfieri hills, in the Lower Monferrato, at the boundary with Langhe, when Giacomo Cotto and his wife Elisabetta built the family farm during a very tough historical time.

The results of their passion for agriculture and their hard work are still visible in the original Barbera, Nebbiolo and Arneis vineyard, which is still productive.
