Label / history
The wine continues a project rooted in the hills along the Parodine road, past Cascina Polastra between Capriata, San Cristoforo and Gavi, where the family’s early Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto and Cortese vineyards were planted. The project later extended into the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato landscape, reaching Neive.
