The Finer Details
What does our Somm say?
This Roero Arneis D.O.C.G from Cascina Ghercina is a wonderfully fresh drop, full of wistful and pleasurable fruity and floral notes without any oakyness.
This elegant and wine has crisp acidity and therefore makes a great food partner to dishes containing fish, shellfish, rabbit or duck. In addition, risotto and general Aperitivo fare will allow this wine to shine and not overpower its delicate almond nuances.
I would recommend an herb crusted, baked fish with baked cheesy fennel, or alternatively a traditional spaghetti carbonara. If you’re wanting to whip this out at a family or group dinner occasion, try your hand at a full roast duck or ham and wow your guests with this sophisticated white wine from Piedmont.
This wine is often enjoyed as an Aperitivo, a bottle or two would go down deliciously with some good quality crusty bread and cheese fondue or some simple green olives.

The Winery
Cascina Ghercina Winery was born from the desire of Paolo and Guido Sartirano: to dedicate a selection of wines to the wine lovers passionate for Piedmont wines, who are constantly looking for quality and tradition.
Respect for the territory, the continuous search for excellence, authentic passion: these are the values inherited from their fathers and grandfathers, now combined with technologies that modernity offers.
Cascina Ghercina wines are the offspring of Piedmont and in particular Langhe, historical places suited to vines. The cellar produces wines of the Piedmont wine-making tradition, using the grapes of the vineyards located around the lake Ghercina, in a suitable area situated in Novello, on the border with Barolo village.
Nas-cëtta, dolcetto, barbera, nebbiolo are the main grape varieties from which important wines come to life. The most famous one is of course Barolo, vinified and produced with sensitivity and mastery to satisfy even the most demanding palates.
Cascina Ghercina are honoured to share the historic and cultural importance of their wines and love their wines to be one day on your table, to share the emotion of tradition and the pleasure of good wine.
