In 1970 the Wine-growers' cooperative of Torrazza Coste (founded in 1907) incorporates its sister company of Codevilla (founded in 1931), thus giving origin to the Wine growers' Cooperative of Torrazza Coste and Codevilla with the fusion of human and technical experience of hundreds of members and of the historical and cultural patrimony of more than sixty years of wine growing and producing activities.
The head-offices are located in the Liberty-style building in Torrazza Coste, construction which was finished in 1908 under the guidance of Engineer Faravelli, with the intent to house the local wine growers' cooperative, with a holding capacity of 7.790 hl, of which 2.350 in the five reinforced concrete tanks in the cellars under the ground floor of the building.


During the nineteen-eighties, after the fusion of the two companies, both buildings of Torrazza Coste and Codevilla were restructured in such a way that they marked a turning point in the production technology as well as in the commercialisation of the wines, giving origin to TORREVILLA, a brand-name which later became also the name of the Company.
Today TORREVILLA plays a very important role in the Oltrepò Pavese area: it represents, infact, the historical memory of the local economy based on vines and wines.

Torrevilla's products, red wines, white wines and sparkling wines, continue to receive important acknowledgements during numerous contests. Torrevilla has lived in perfect health through the whole of the nineteenth century, a century full of economical, social and political ups and downs.


It is for this reason that Torrevilla received the UnionCamere award on the 11th May 2006 in Rome, a prestigeous acknowledgement for a “Longliving and succesfully operating Company”.
In the month of May of this year TORREVILLA will celebrate its first onehundred years with a series of cultural and oenological events, which will bring the Winery under the spot-light of the wine-growing and wine-producing world in the territory it represents, thus strenghthening its first-class social and economical position in it.
