Bianca, Cascina Tavijn 2020

Nadia Verrua’s family has been making wines in the hills of Monferrato in the province of Asti for over a century. Their ten hectares of land are farmed organically and split equally between vines bearing local grape varieties and hazelnut trees. It’s little secret that Nadia’s mum Teresa makes one of the best torta di nocciole in all of Piemonte.

Cortese and Chardonnay from vines just beneath Nadia’s home, blended with a little Moscato from her friend Ezio Cerruti. The grapes were destemmed and spent a week on skins before nine months of rest in vat. The result is a simple, soulful maceration that offers stone fruits, citrus and spice.
