Vineyard |
The position of the vineyards with their south-east and south-west aspect and the clay-calcareous and calcareous-siliceous soils with marl of Diano provide excellent conditions for the growing of long-lasting organic wines with great structure. Vineyard elevations of 820 feet asl and average vine age is between 30 to 40 years. |
Vinification |
Harvested by hand in boxes in September/October. The grapes are pressed and transferred into temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Traditional fermentation with daily pumping of the must over the cap for at least 15 days, after which the wine is drawn off and stored in stainless steel tanks for 12 months. It is then cellared in Bordeaux bottles with natural corks for a further 3 to 6 months prior to its release. |
Pairing |
This is one of the Langhe’s historic wines, so it goes wonderfully with local dishes as well as others, such as tagliatelle with meat sauce, filled pastas, charcuterie, boiled meats, poultry and semi-hard cheeses. |
Camparo has been dedicated to wine-growing for three generations, and they do it with passion, following a production philosophy that has always been founded on the values of natural management of the soil and the uncompromising wholesomeness of the winemaking process.In the year 2000 Mauro harnessed these intrinsic values by taking the major step of obtaining “organic farming” certification and becoming one of the first in the Langhe to opt for this production philosophy.
The secret of the success of this family business lies today in continuing to draw on tradition, whilst always looking to the future and being ready to engage openly with the challenges of our times.
