Our\u00a0organic wines from Roero, Piedmont<\/strong>, are produced from grapes grown on the slopes of the hills of San Vito in Mont\u00e0.<\/p>\n

In the fields, in the vineyard, in the cellar<\/span><\/p>\n

Our vineyards<\/h2>\n

Our\u00a0farm<\/strong>\u00a0covers around 13 hectares, 2 of which surround the farmhouse and are planted with vines.<\/p>\n

The south-east and south-west exposure, the altitude of 360 metres and the\u00a0clay-sandy soil<\/strong>\u00a0give our wines structure, balance and intense aromas. This same soil is rich in fossilised shells, a reminder of when these hills used to be seabed.<\/p>\n

For generations, we have cultivated the land with the utmost respect. The low yield per hectare in our vineyards ensures that only healthy, fully ripe grapes reach the cellar. In recent years, we have embraced organic farming: from the 2022 harvest onwards, our wines are\u00a0certified organic<\/strong>. This choice reflects who we are and our passion for our work and for this land.<\/p>\n

The organic wines of Cascina Ponchietta<\/h2>\n

Langhe Nebbiolo DOC<\/h3>\n

Nebbiolo<\/strong> grapes, aged for 12 months in steel and a further 6 in the bottle. Ruby red with a garnet hue that develops with age.
\nOn the nose, intense aromas of red berry fruits. On the palate, soft and velvety, with well-balanced tannins. Can be aged from 8 to 10 years. Pairs well with red meat, wild game and aged cheeses.<\/p>\n

Piemonte Barbera DOC<\/h3>\n

Barbera<\/strong> grapes, harvested around mid-September.
\nAged for 12 months in stainless steel, followed by a further 6 months in the bottle. Bright ruby red with violet hues, with aromas of cherry and blackberry. Soft and fresh on the palate, can be aged for up to 4 years. It\u2019s a natural match for traditional Piedmontese pasta dishes, cured meats and medium-aged cheeses.<\/p>\n

Caio, an aromatic wine made from Brachetto grapes<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s our most unusual wine, and perhaps the one most loved by those who discover it. Produced from long-stemmed\u00a0Brachetto<\/strong> grapes, grown in Mont\u00e0. Cold maceration followed by 8 months in stainless steel. The result is a dry aromatic wine, brilliant red with pink hues and an intense aroma of rosehip.
\nIt\u2019s perfect as an aperitif, with vegetable starters, asparagus risotto or at the end of a meal with dry pastries.<\/p>\n
