CASCINA DELLE MONACHE ESTATE

In Gavi, in the Alessandria area, Cascina delle Monache Estate dedicates its work to a single great white: Gavi DOCG from Cortese grapes. From this unique denomination, the winery produces three different styles — still, frizzante, and spumante — all exceeding the minimum alcohol threshold of 10.5% set by the regulations. It is a family-run operation that prefers to delve deeply into a single expression rather than dispersing its efforts, seeking out the various possible voices of Cortese. The declared philosophy is one of connection: each glass as the opening of a dialogue that transcends the boundaries of the vineyard. Behind this formula lies a concrete relationship with the land, a respect measured in daily work rather than in words. The estate welcomes visitors, and a tasting becomes the most direct way to verify this premise: tasting still, frizzante, and spumante in succession shows how a single grape variety, within a single denomination, changes pace depending on the winemaking process. Those passing through Gavi will find here an opportunity to understand Cortese from within, glass after glass.
