Piemonte, thanks to one grape in particular, has long been considered as one of the most premium, high quality wine regions in the old world. In the very north-west corner of Italy, at the foothills of the Alps, it enjoys a warm continental summer but a much colder winter with low rainfall. The mountains help create the famous fog which helps ripen the Nebbiolo of Barolo and Barbaresco. These two powerful, perfumed and tannic wines head up the reds in the region (which outnumber whites by 2:1) and are made for long aging. Whites, including the sweet sparkling Moscato d’Asti are floral, and aromatic. Prices can be astronomical and are framed by a vineyard classification system very similar to that of Burgundy.

The company, which has been owned by the Cantamessa family since 1870, is still personally led by Cantamessa Aldo with his son Luca and his wife Giuliana. The entire Cantamessa winery, from the vineyard to the cellar, was converted according to the principles of organic cultivation in 2017. Starting from the 2020 vintage, in fact, all the products of the Cantamessa winery are certified Organic. The top wines of Azienda Vitivinicola Cantamessa express the true essence of the Monferrato territory and its rich quality of vines.

Tasting note: Ripe nose of slightly confected red cherries and strawberries with notes of white flower and rich white peach. Beautifully textured and clean, with plenty of power and acidity. Pink grapefruit and juicy red fruits lead to a super dry mineral finish, with thrilling acidity. Long and fresh.
Winemaking Detail: Manually harvested from certified organic vineyards. Direct pressing to extract the delicate pink colour, followed by temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks.
