Cantine Sant’Agata is located in the
province of Asti in the heart of Piedmont.
The Cavallero family founded the winery in the early 1990’s, focusing on
the main grape varieties that make the Piedmont area such a big part of Italian
wine making. This rare grape, thought ot have come from Burgundy in the 18th Century, was forgotten, but has been brought back into cultivation in a very small part of Piedmont. Tasting Notes: Medium bodied, ruby red, it suggests roses and dark berry fruit. Soft and spicy notes on the finish. |
