The estate's modern cellar merges monastic tradition with contemporary enology, crafting Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato, Terre Alfieri, and Barbera d'Asti DOCG wines from vineyards spanning three communes. Visitors encounter a tasting room framed by surrounding slopes, where environmental respect guides production from vine to glass.
