Gialdi Vini
A family story, rooted in Ticino.
Guglielmo Gialdi began with a wine trading business. The decisive change came in 1984: acquiring a winery in northern Ticino allowed the family to make its own Merlot.

Feliciano & Raffaella Gialdi
The house identifies Feliciano as its director and his daughter Raffaella as the next generation. Winemaker Alfred De Martin and the cellar team help translate the region’s grapes into the house’s wines.
Craft and origins
Merlot anchors the house’s identity, including red wine and rosé. Sauvignon appears in Ronco Bain. The Gialdi and Brivio labels express different regional origins within Ticino.
