More questions
The Chardonnay Langhe DOC of Cà del Baio elegantly expresses the richness of the Langhe territory, the beating heart of Piedmont's winemaking.
Grown on clay and limestone soils, this white wine is characterized by the purity of the Chardonnay grape variety, enhanced by careful vineyard management and a well-balanced aging process. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature, the wine rests partially in oak barrels to gain complexity without losing freshness and liveliness.
The glass opens with clear aromas of ripe white fruit, notes of golden apple and peach, delicate hints of white flowers, and a slight buttery note, a result of the aging that softens its character. On the palate, it is balanced and smooth, with good structure and a pleasant mineral-sapidity persistence typical of the area. Perfect paired with grilled fish dishes, light white meats, and fresh cheeses, it represents a refined expression of Chardonnay in the context of the Langhe.

The story
The Grasso family has been connected to these hills for generations: Giuseppe Grasso's arrival in Treiso is documented in 1870, and in the following decades the family progressively selected and vinified individual parcels. In the 1980s and 2000s the winery refined the separation of grapes by cru, and in 2008 introduced experiments with Riesling. The revival and modern visibility of the winery are linked to the work of Giulio Grasso, and today management also involves the family's daughters.
Production philosophy
It favors a sustainable approach to viticulture, eliminating chemical weed control, using cover crops, and prioritizing biodiversity and soil conservation. In the cellar, fermentations with indigenous yeasts are encouraged and the use of sulfites is limited to preserve the character of the vintages and their ageing potential.
Terroir and vineyards
The estate and most of its vineyards are located in Treiso, near Barbaresco and not far from Neive. The estate's vineyards fall within historic crus such as Vallegrande, Asili, Pora, Marcarini, Ferrere and Trestelle; the soils are typically calcareous marls that characterize the Barbaresco area.
Awards and recognition
Giulio Grasso was named "Winemaker of the Year" by the Gambero Rosso guide.
