Fabio Marazzi

In 1988, Fabio Marazzi entered the family winery management of Cantina Scuropasso and brought an experimental approach that became part of the estate’s working rhythm. The line of inquiry from that point has been practical rather than decorative: attentive to vineyard, cellar, and the shifts that shape a wine’s character. Today, as owner / titolare of Cantina Scuropasso, Marazzi sits inside the continuity of the house as well as its ongoing change.

The work at Cantina Scuropasso is built on a balance between technique and atmosphere, between what can be controlled and what must be read. The experimental approach Marazzi introduced in 1988 remains the guiding thread, giving equal weight to precision and instinct, structure and responsiveness. Rooted in the Oltrepò hills, the work stays tied to place, season, and memory, with balance treated as a working principle that extends beyond the cellar and into the estate as a whole.

Roccapietra, Metodo Classico Brut Pinot Nero Scuropasso, Metodo Classico VSQ Pinot Nero Pas Dosé Roccapietra Zero Pas Dosé, and Cruasé Extra Brut mark the range associated with Fabio Marazzi. The set points to a style that values finesse, freshness, and the expressive range of Pinot Nero, while keeping each label distinct within the broader house character of Cantina Scuropasso. Read together, the wines map a disciplined approach that moves from direct and polished to drier, more precise expressions without changing hands.

Marazzi frames the work through balance, sensation, the Oltrepò hills, and family, in his own words: “Relating to and finding balance with the people and things around me, seeking inner serenity, relating to my own sensations like those these marvelous Oltrepò hills give me: the value I attribute to my work and the love for my family.” Fabio Marazzi is the owner and long-time operator of Cantina Scuropasso in Pietra de' Giorgi, Oltrepò Pavese, where the winery has produced wine since 1962 and where he formally entered management in 1988.
