CASCINA RAINERO

In Mongardino, on the hills of Asti's Monferrato, Cascina Rainero produces limited-edition wines where the agricultural gesture meets the artistic: each vintage, an artist signs the label, and the winery champions this dialogue between vineyard and art as part of its narrative. Three DOCG denominations define its profile, all Piedmontese and all demanding in their own way. The range extends from Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato, a red with measured tannins and a recognizable aromatic profile, to Barbera d'Asti aged in wood, and finally to Terre Alfieri, which brings together Arneis as a white and the more structured Nebbiolo. Three grape varieties and three different registers, united by a pursuit of elegance rather than power. Visitors to the winery can see firsthand how experimentation and territory coexist: tastings are accompanied by artisanal cured meats, typical cheeses, and options also designed for those who choose vegan cuisine. It's worth a stop for anyone traveling through the Asti region who wants to understand, glass in hand, what it means to link an artist's label to three of Piedmont's most esteemed denominations.
