“We had a visit with a tasting guided by the young owner, who passionately continues the work started by his grandparents. He first took us to see the vineyards, explaining the type, exposure, cultivation methods, and wines obtained. Then he showed us the cellar, explaining the winemaking and preservation process, depending on the wine. Everything was truly fascinating, and he was very knowledgeable and available to answer questions and curiosities. Finally, the tasting, a choice of 5 or 7 wines, all very appreciated, accompanied by a platter of cured meats and cheese.”

We had the tasting with a visit. The owner told us the history of the company, we visited the vineyards and the cellar. He answered all our questions professionally. The tasting also satisfied us: we are not connoisseurs but appreciated the love and passion of the owners of this business, feelings that shine through during the entire experience. Recommended!

Bright straw yellow in color. The nose offers fresh olfactory fragrances, reminiscent of white flowers, white-fleshed fruit, and aromatic herbs. The taste is also fresh, balanced, with good persistence and a slightly almond finish.

Langhe Nascetta

Gold yellow in color. The nose offers fragrances that remind of pineapple and exotic fruits. The taste reveals the tannin from maceration and marked acidity.

Vino Rosato Tramonto

Light and bright cherry red in the glass. The nose brings fresh and fragrant scents of red fruit. The palate is consistent with the nose, revealing a smooth, balanced, and persistently enjoyable drink.

Dolcetto d’Alba

Light ruby red in color. The nose reveals a floral and fruity bouquet, particularly recalling violet, plum, and sour cherry. The palate continues in the same vein, revealing balance, good structure, persistence, and a smooth drink.

Barbera d’Alba

Ruby red with violet reflections in the glass. Fruity and vinous on the nose, it wonderfully expresses the varietal tones of the grape, with hints of cherry and sour cherry, followed by subtle spicy nuances. The sip is fresh and smooth, with good persistence.

Barbera d’Alba Superiore

Intense ruby red with clear purple reflections. The nose is led by deep fruity scents of plum, red plum, and ripe cherry. Slightly vanilla nuances complete the olfactory picture. The palate is round and warm, silky and consistent with the nose, balanced and persistent.

Langhe Nebbiolo

Ruby red in the glass, slightly garnet at the edge. Delicate and fragrant bouquet, composed of floral hints of rose and violet, fruity tones of raspberries and wild strawberries, and balsamic accents. The palate follows the nose, revealing balance, right tannins, and good length.

Barolo del Comune di Monforte d’ Alba

Light garnet red in the glass. The entrance on the nose is marked by ripe dark fruit, followed by important tertiary scents of black pepper, underbrush, spices, and star anise. On the palate, it reveals powerful tannins, which are well integrated into the structure. Good persistence.

Barolo Bricco San Pietro

Ruby red with garnet reflections. The nose is rich and broad; it expresses dominant scents of ripe red fruits and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and soft, with fine and well-integrated tannins and a very long persistence.
