CASCINA ALBERTA Azienda Agricola

From a late 19th-century farmhouse in Vignale Monferrato, Cascina Alberta interprets three Piedmontese DOCG denominations. The common thread is Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato, the red wine that identifies this corner of Monferrato, flanked by Barbera d'Asti—aged for at least four months—and Terre Alfieri, available in both white and red. Three appellations that coexist on different soils and exposures, each with its own regulations. The production thus moves between distinct registers: the spicy aromaticity of Ruchè, a rare and low-diffusion grape; the acidic backbone and dark fruit of Barbera; the dual soul of Terre Alfieri, where Arneis and Nebbiolo tell the story of the white and red of the same territory. It's a way of working in the cellar that prioritizes the distinction between zones rather than uniformity. Those who wish to verify this in person can visit year-round: the winery welcomes visitors for tastings among the vineyards of Monferrato, in direct dialogue with those who cultivate the grapes.
