i. Biography
Flavio Saglietti is the winemaker of Azienda Agricola Saglietti Flavio in La Morra, where continuity matters as much as technique. Since 1997, he has held the winery and winemaker role there, keeping the work tied to the same ground, the same cellar, and the same seasonal cycle that turns harvest into wine with a clear sense of place.
Coming Up
The winery role at Azienda Agricola Saglietti Flavio has been carried by Flavio Saglietti since 1997, and that duration is part of the work itself. In La Morra, long service in the cellar is not about title; it is about maintaining standards year after year, reading each season on its own terms, and making decisions that keep the estate’s wines aligned with the land they come from.
Where They Are Now
At the La Morra estate, Flavio Saglietti’s current work remains centered on the practical links between vineyard and cellar under the Azienda Agricola Saglietti Flavio name. That requires discipline at both ends of the process: following the vines through their pace and character in the vineyard, then shaping the wines in the cellar with enough restraint to preserve identity. The value of that continuity is in the finished wines, which carry the steadiness of a single place worked over time.

Signature
Flavio Saglietti’s signature wines include Barolo from Cerequio, Barolo from Brunate, Dolcetto d'Alba, Barbera d'Alba, and Barolo DOCG Cerequio. Read together, they show the range of the cellar: Barolo from Cerequio and Barolo from Brunate anchor the estate in site-specific Barolo, while Dolcetto d'Alba and Barbera d'Alba bring a different register within the same house style. Barolo DOCG Cerequio extends that line of work and keeps the connection to the landscape explicit. Across the set, the method is measured rather than showy, with consistency and precision doing most of the work.
