Descrizione

The Langhe Barbera DOC from Cascina Corte shows a direct, immediate profile consistent with the grape and its origin. Of bright ruby color, it opens on the nose with notes of red fruit and plum, accompanied by light floral hints and a discreet mineral note. The aromatic approach is frank and clean, without affectation, suggesting a wine suited to everyday drinking as well as convivial occasions. It favors freshness and drinkability, intended to accompany everyday meals.

On the palate the wine displays freshness and a lean structure, with restrained tannins supporting the sip and a lively acidity typical of the variety; the finish is savory and invites a second glass. It pairs simply with traditional dishes: pasta with tomato sauce, white meats, cold cuts and semi-firm cheeses; it is also pleasant with grilled vegetables and pizzas. Serve at a cool cellar temperature and consume within a few years to appreciate its spontaneity.

Winery history

The property, already shown on an 18th-century map as "Cascina Corte", was purchased by the managers in 2001. After years of abandonment, the building and the vineyards were restored: vineyard work and the construction of a winery began in the early 2000s. The estate applied for organic certification in 2002 and received it in 2005; the family moved permanently into the farmhouse around 2008.

Production philosophy

The winery's approach prioritizes organic vineyard management, respect for the land, and minimal winemaking to showcase local grape varieties. In addition to stainless-steel vinification, the winery uses oak ageing and experiments with amphorae; the goal is minimal cellar intervention and bottles that express the Langhe.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located on the San Luigi hills near Dogliani, in the heart of the Piedmontese Langhe. The landscape is typically hilly and lies close to renowned areas such as Monforte d'Alba and the Dolcetto di Dogliani production area.
