Description:

“Ermanno Costa – Cascina Spagnolo” is in the Roero area. The farm in in the centre of an amphitheatre of vineyards facing south, on the same hill were the Church of San Defendente was built, a hill historically devoted to viticulture. The six hectars contain 5 vine varieties: Arenis, Barbera, Nebbiolo, Chardonnay and Brachetto. We are convinced that the quality of the wine has its origin in the vine and not in the cellar, therefore the manual and mechanized processes are made personally with the best of attention and professionality.


Tasting Notes and Pairing:
Clear, shiny red wine, with ruby tints. Armonic and elegant aroma, with hints of liquorice. The strong presence of tannin, typical of the Nebbiolo vine variety, makes the taste savoury and persistent to the palate.
Suggested serving temperature:
18 °C
Better open some hours in advance.
in the vineyard:
As of 2018, we adhere to the SQNPI Sustainable Agriculture Certification, which consists of complying with the European regulations on plant protection products to be used in the vineyard and in the winery.
Our goal is to arrive at harvest with 0% residue of phytosanitary products inside the grapes.
We do not use herbicides and we use only mechanical work under the row.
In order to be SQNPI certified, every year we undergo controls on grapes, leaves and wine to ensure the best control.
We have no employees and in the vineyard, as in the cellar, we follow everything in first person.
Production method and aging:
Alcoholic fermentation and maceration in stainless steel, for seven to ten days. The malolactic fermentation occurs naturally, in stainless steel, with the temperature increase during the summer months.
Aging in French oak barrels (2000 liters) for about 18-20 months.
