Coppo is in Canelli, in Piedmont. Piero Coppo founded the winery there in 1892. In 1910 he married Clelia Pennone, heir to the Pio Pennone cellars, and the two cellars were joined. UNESCO recognised the Coppo cellars as a World Heritage Site in 2014.
The family farms about 85 hectares. Around Canelli and Cassinasco they grow Moscato Bianco, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, and the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay go into Alta Langa sparkling wine. Because of its history, the winery is authorised to vinify Barolo outside the designated area. It also owns the La Rocca estate in Serravalle Scrivia, where it makes Gavi La Rocca from Cortese.
Pomorosso has been made since 1984, the same year as the first Riserva Coppo. Since the Nizza appellation was recognised in 2014, Coppo has promoted its Nizza vineyards.
