The wine region of Monferrato

Historic cradle of Barbera (native here): indulgent reds with notes of ripe cherry, plum and raspberry, signature fresh acidity and supple tannins. Also identity grapes: pale, tannic, peppery Grignolino red, aromatic Ruchè (rose, spices, DOCG at Castagnole), Freisa and sweet muscat Brachetto. Whites: ample Cortese (base of neighbouring Gavi), aromatic Malvasia. Fruity Dolcetto.


The wine region of Piedmont

Kingdom of Nebbiolo: Barolo and Barbaresco DOCG, long-ageing reds with firm tannins and lively acidity, complex aromas of withered rose, sour cherry, tar, truffle and undergrowth. More accessible, tangy Barbera on red fruit, supple, crisp Dolcetto. Sweet, floral sparkling Moscato d'Asti, mineral, lemony Gavi (Cortese) white, round, almondy Arneis from Roero. 50,000 ha across the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, UNESCO.

The word of the wine: Aging on lees

Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
