Domain
Cascina Ghercina was founded in 1910 and a clear mission has been drawn up by the various generations: only own cultivation and quality come first. In 2002, the family purchased 8 hectares of vineyards, located on southwestern slopes in the middle of the Barolo region. These are located 360 meters above sea level and the flow of the 'Ghercina' river between the vineyards offers an exclusive microclimate. In addition, they built a 5000m² wine cellar, which is partly underground. This has increased the storage capacity to more than 15,000 hectoliters. The domain also has vineyards in Langhe, Alba, Roero, Asti, Monferrato and Gavi.

Vinification
Cold maceration takes place for 8 hours, followed by gentle pressing. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18° - 20°C.

Delicious
Perfect in combination with tomato and mozzarella, quiches, pizzas, seafood or tuna starters.
