- TASTING NOTE: A fine, delicate Nebbiolo that shows the pedigree of the family. From their San Sebastiano site, the fruit sees a cold maceration, then whole berry fermented and raised from 8-12 months in barrel.
- ABOUT THE WINE: From a unique vineyard site in Monforte d’Alba surrounded by unmatched biodiversity and clay and limestone soils, these Nebbiolo vines cascade down from the church of San Sebastiano towards the only natural lake in the Langhe. Cold maceration is used, followed by whole berry fermentation (not whole cluster, as they wish to avoid excessive power). 8 to 12 months of barrel aging set this Nebbiolo into a different realm in relation to other wines in its category.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Cascina Penna-Currado is the new personal venture of the Penna-Currado Vietti family, spearheaded by Elena Penna, Luca Currado Vietti and their kids, Michele and Giulia. Custodians of a cultural and sentimental legacy in the noble lands of the Langhe, Luca and Elena spent over 35 years at the helm of one of Piedmont’s most lauded wineries, Vietti, until both decided to part ways in January of 2023. Their new venture is of entirely different scale, artisanal, and they look forward to building it as a family endeavor with their marvelous mix of wit, wisdom and refreshed ambition grounded by their sound roots and experience in the Langhe. The winery calls home a renovated cascina in Serralunga d’Alba that dates back to 1554, while the vineyards span pristine parcels of the Langhe and Derthona areas. Care for the land and the choice of vineyards is of particular importance to the Cascina Penna-Currado operation: they have opted for cooler areas, rich in biodiversity and keen to a new, longevous interpretation of the Langhe.
