The Cascina Penna-Currado winery is located in the outskirts of Serralunga, in an incomparable position with 360’ views of the towns in the Langa del Barolo area. Their 20-some hectares of current vineyard holdings have been carefully chosen in respect to the quickly changing climate and also their generations-deep wisdom of the various corners of the Langhe, and beyond. Elena grew extremely interested in Timorasso and thus they are caring for a vineyard in Derthona in the Colli Tortonesi appellation running along the south east edge of the Piedmont region in the south-eastern spur of the province of Alessandria. Here, soils are ripe with Sant’Agata fossil marls containing twenty million year-old compacted calcareous clay, responsible for the beloved savoriness and salty minerality that Timorasso manifests in these parts. Turning to the red wine production, most of the vineyard holdings lie in the municipality of Monforte: a huge highlight of the property today considering the lease of 13 contiguous hectares in the hamlet of San Sebastiano. Although it is within the Monforte d’Alba township, the area sits just outside the Barolo zone. Here, Cascina P-C will source Dolcetto and Nebbiolo from Bricco Lago, Nebbiolo from San Sebastiano and Barbera from Carrà. This entire area was once considered within the regulations for Barolo, which speaks to its quality potential. Monforte, as we know, shines for its diversity and is tough to pinpoint in terms of terroir, though it is known for its soils of marine sedimentary origin dating back to the “Piedmont Tertiary Basin” characterized by the presence of sedimentary calcareous clay marl (alternating layers of marl and sand or sandstone.) The 2023 Cascina P-C Barolos, which will be released in 2027 years, will be sourced from Monforte vineyard sites in addition to two MGA Cru’s, bottled separately.
