The year was marked by a colder winter than the previous one with two snow events and heavy rains which made up for the water deficit of the previous year. The spring was quite rainy, a factor that required great attention to avoid the establishment of plant diseases. The month of July had some very strong storms with uneven consequences. The beginning of August was characterized by intense heat without having repercussions on the water stress of the plants. The harvest began on August 16th, with the grapes used for the Alta Langa, to continue with the white grape varieties harvested in September and the red grape varieties harvested in late October.

PRE-FERMENTATION PROCEDURES: Grape bunches are hand-sorted on a vibrating table and chilled with carbonic snow to avoid oxidation and reduce considerably the use of sulphur and softly pressed.
This process is “100% screw conveyor free” to handle grapes as gently as possible.
FERMENTATION PROCESS: A part of the must is chilled and kept in an inert environment (nitrogen). This step lasts for 12 to 15 hours at 8-10°C (cryomaceration). Then the fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature.
BOTTLE REFINEMENT: POGGIO DI CARO is refined only in bottle for about 3 months before realising.
POGGIO DI CARO is a faithful representation of the sandy soil of the Roero area. Crispy, fruity, and very enjoyable, it represents the younger side of the UNESCO area site of south Piemonte.
POGGIO DI CARO is a white wine with a gentle fascinating character.
