About this wine
A Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC from hillside vineyards in the Langhe, where marl- and clay-rich soils give the wine elegance, aromatic finesse, and a marked sense of place. In the glass it shows a luminous ruby red with light garnet reflections; the nose is elegant and complex, offering rose, cherry and red berries alongside delicate spice and light balsamic nuances. The palate is harmonious and well-structured, with well-integrated tannins, sustaining freshness, and a long finish with fruity, floral returns.

ドルチェット・ダルバ
Dolcetto d'Alba
RedDolcetto
Cascina Carrà's entry-level red from Monforte d'Alba's San Sebastiano district, made from 100% Dolcetto. Vinified in stainless steel using the submerged-cap method with a 5–7 day maceration at 25–27°C, then aged for about seven months — six in steel or cement vats and one in bottle. The wine shows an intense ruby color with violet reflections, aromas of small dark berries, blackberry and cherry-plum jam, and a soft, easy-drinking palate typical of the variety.
ブリッコ・ラーゴ
Bricco Lago
RedDolcetto
A 100% Dolcetto from the Dogliani DOCG appellation, grown on hillside vineyards between 350 and 450 meters above sea level. Maceration takes place in stainless steel for 5–7 days at 25–27°C, followed by at least 14 months of aging — a minimum of 8 months in small oak barrels and 6 months in bottle — giving more structure and depth than Cascina Carrà's straight Dolcetto d'Alba.
バルベーラ・ダルバ カルロット
Barbera d'Alba "Carlot"
RedBarbera
A 100% Barbera from Monforte d'Alba, powerful and dry with an intense ruby color shading to garnet. The nose offers fragrant violet and fruit-in-spirit aromas layered with notes of sweet spice and cocoa, while the palate carries Barbera's signature bright acidity balanced against soft, well-integrated tannins.
ラヴィオーラ
Raviola
RedBarbera
Cascina Carrà's top Barbera bottling, from a single vineyard in the Raviola locality of Monforte d'Alba at 400–450 meters elevation. This 100% Barbera reaches 15.5% ABV and shows a very dark ruby color with garnet reflections that deepen with age — concentrated, powerful, and built for the table.
ティータ
Tita
RedNebbiolo
Cascina Carrà's flagship Nebbiolo, from the single Tita vineyard in Monforte d'Alba. Intense, elegant, and highly concentrated, it shows an intense garnet color. The nose is enveloping, with balsamic and ethereal sensations where rhubarb dominates when young, evolving with age into cinnamon and green pepper spice alongside white truffle and vanilla. The palate is sumptuous yet rightly austere, with great persistence and silky tannins.
コリブリ
Colibrì
WhiteChardonnay
A Langhe DOC Chardonnay named Colibrì (Italian for hummingbird), reflecting the wine's lightness and freshness. Grown alongside Cascina Carrà's red varieties in Monforte d'Alba, it offers a fresh, aromatic expression of Chardonnay from a region far better known for its reds — a distinctive white from a traditionally red-focused estate.
