"Monghisio" Piemonte DOC Sauvignon 2021

In 1959, the year of its foundation, there were only 19. Today, the members of the Cantina Cooperativa Vinchio e Vaglio Serra number almost 200. In total, they manage around 450 hectares of vineyards with care and passion. In particular Barbera, the so-called 'Rubino di Vinchio', but also other typical local varieties, such as Dolcetto, Cortese, Grignolino, Nebbiolo, Brachetto, Moscato, Freisa and Bonarda. In addition to this dense group of autochthonous, i.e. typical local varieties, there are also international varieties that are best suited to the Piedmont hills, such as Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon and Viognier. The vineyards, mostly on very steep slopes, make the work particularly demanding but, at the same time, guarantee optimal exposures that result in perfect ripening. The quality of the harvested grapes is, of course, also helped by the nature of the soils, whose mineral components guarantee the production of high quality wines. The wine cellar, on the other hand, is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and modern winemaking facilities, and also has a large barrique cellar, built into the hillside, which guarantees constant and natural temperature and humidity. Here there are French oak barriques and barrels of various capacities, where the wines can age slowly. For as long as necessary.
