Vinous Reverie Notes
Blend: Barbera and Cortese. Corte San Pietro was a dream of the Ghidella family who have now been carefully tending their vineyards resting on the hill next to Moasca’s castle for three generations. The winery is located in Piemonte in the Nizza appellation and UNESCO World Heritage area, which is the region known for high quality Barbera grapes. Thanks to Fabio the Ghidella family has grown from the small vineyard close to their home to 5 hectares that are in the process of organic conversion. Fabio's grandfather passed down the lessons that grapes need to be grown naturally and that chemicals and pesticides have no place in the vineyard that is right next to their family home. Fabio also listened to and gravitated towards his grandfather's approach of traditional (natural) wine making that had been practiced in Italy for centuries before the advent of modern agribusiness after WWII.
