Cascina Pellerino, Piedmont

Aromas of wild Roses and rain-soaked earth, dark treacle and meat juices assail the nostrils. The palate is invitingly diffuse, Nebbiolo's often coruscating tannins here present but approachable

The Cascina Pellerino estate

This small, modern estate in the Langhe hills north of Alba is run with great enthusiasm by Cristiano Bono and his business partner Roberto Ghione. Their commitment to quality is clear and the wine range include an excellent introduction to the little known Arneis grape and affordable, accessible yet characterful Nebbiolos for those who baulk at spending £25+ on a good Barbaresco or even more for a decent Barolo.
