Grape Harvest

Harvest at the beginning of October with selection and thinning of the grapes. The ripening and sugar content of the grapes were good, far from the yields specified in the production guidelines (we are at 60/70 quintals per hectare), with a medium-low must volume yield (0.55/0.6). Vinification takes place in steel tanks without skin maceration for the entire fermentation, which is carried out at controlled temperatures, between 18 and 24°C. Cardonera, our Nebbiolo, then undergoes aging in wood, with a mixed composition of large barrels (20/25 hl) and some second/third-pass tonneaux.

Wine and Terroir

Planting year 2021. MICHET clone vines on American rootstock. Certified organic vineyard management with Simonit & Sirch pruning and vine care system. Fertilization every other year exclusively with local manure from NON-intensive farms. Row management with green manure and legumes to restore nitrogen to the soil.

The vineyard is located in a beautiful basin, historically known as 'ra vigna, at an average altitude of 440 m a.s.l. in Alta Langa, in the municipality of Monesiglio (CN). It has a SOUTH/SOUTH-EAST exposure. The soil consists of initial layers of a mixed sand-silt-clay composition with a golden-brown color typical of the more disintegrated layers of the Langa marls (here we have the Monesiglio and Serole formations). After a few meters of depth, the alternation begins between the layers of the Monesiglio formation, predominantly reddish sandy layers, which generally yield the typical Langa stones, alternating with grey marl, the so-called tufa. The Monesiglio formation often intersects with the Rocchetta formation, an older part consisting of thick layers of highly fractured and easily eroded grey-blue marl. This part of Langa has a defined geological era, belonging to the ancient Piedmontese Tertiary basin. In particular, here we find the sandstones of the Rocchetta-Monesiglio formation interspersed with the Serole formation (Miocene geological era: Serravallian-Tortonian).
