The Story

The archives of the Municipality of Monteu Roero say that Giovanni Dominico Negro, son of Audino… was owner, in the same area which now houses the Perdaudin estate with its prestigious vineyards, of a house with an oven, a yard, cellar and vines

Angelo Negro, known as “Angelin”, was born in the Perdaudin farmhouse (the old “Poddio di Audino”)

Angelo Negro, “Angelin”, began making Nebbiolo and Barbera

Angelo Negro married Gertrude Ferrero, known as “Dina”

They had two sons, Giovanni and Bernardino Negro

Angelo Negro bought the “Pasquali” motorised cultivator, the Negro estate’s first tractor

Work began on the house and cellar in Sant’Anna, a hamlet of Monteu Roero

Giovanni Negro vinified a “dry” Arneis for the first time

Gabriele Negro was born. Giovanni participated in the wine fair at the Medieval Castle of Turin, in the Parco del Valentino

Angelo Negro was born, as was the “Negro” label, still used today, with one or two slight adjustments

Emanuela Negro was born

The farm was extended; new vineyards were planted; Giovanni Negro took part in important fairs in the sector, at national and international level

Giuseppe Negro was born, and so was the first vintage of Perdaudin Arneis

Our first Roero Arneis Classic Method, “Giovanni Negro”, was born

The estate expanded and some symbolic labels were created (Sudisfà, Basarin)

The first steps were taken in the Barbaresco area, at Vigna Basarin in Neive

Our first Nebbiolo Classic Method, “Maria Elisa Rosé”, was born

New plantation of Vigna Ciabot San Giorgio

The first steps were taken in the Barolo zone, in Serralunga d’Alba
