Founded as a Capuchin friary 400 years ago, it was built in 1722 at the hands of Piedmontese architect De Vincenti.
The material used for the construction was limestone worked in blocks, for the masonry but also for the characteristic Catalan rounded vaults found inside the structure.
In 1902, the destination of the convent changed from religious to civil, and the structure was purchased by the Sella & Mosca winery, which set up its official headquarters there for 70 years.
The plant, over the years, underwent considerable modifications.
In the 1950s, it was perfected with neoliberty references and citations of the city’s religious architecture. In ’61, family management of the company ceased, in ’74 it was purchased by the Ferroni family, and in 2004 renovations began that led to the establishment of Quartè Sayal.
