What I love most about this wine is that it represents what Nebbiolo from Langhe could be: a fresh and easy to drink wine. Today’s trend is moving towards the creation of “Mini-Barolo” in the appellations Langhe Nebbiolo but Cascina Chicco still loves to make a nice juicy style of pure Nebbiolo grape, perfect to drink every day accompanied by nice antipasto or pasta dishes.

This wine is perfect with roasts, game, and aged cheeses.
