CHATEAU
The winery is situated on a hillside at 450m high to 3.5 km from Barolo Grands Crus.
The name of the company, Cascina Corte, is taken from the farm-house situated at the centre of our vineyard.
The remains of the house are the original structure, and it has been found situated on maps which date back to the middle of the 17th century. The house holds a lot of interest from an architectural point of view, and has been subject to a thorough restoration, in keeping with the original style
Cascina Corte is an organic farm, which we aim to use as a model for best organic production.
100% Barbera

Almost impenetrably dark ruby red, lively and engaging. The nose expresses all the personality of the grape variety with a complex, heady bouquet of fruit (blackberries, sour black cherries) and, even more so, spices (vanilla, pepper). On the palate the traditional acidity backs up the rich, voluminous body. The finish is long and full of character with a lovely fruity encore.
Guide Gambero Rosso : 3 stars
Thanks to its quaffability and softness, an ideal accompaniment for cured meats, soft cheeses (its acidity sets off their creaminess) and legumes. Also effective with first courses such as rice with red wine and main courses involving white meat and baked vegetables
