Type: Wine

Named after the old cellar built in 1598 used for the ageing the Cantine Garrone wines, this Ca' de Mate Nebbiolo and Croatina blend gives life to an authentic entrancing fragrant wine whose palate is complex and dynamic.

Cantine Garrone is based in Oira di Crevoladossola in the northernmost part of Alto Piemonte, a small village surrounded by green Alps where the sun always shines.

In this area, vine growers mostly cultivate Nebbiolo or rather Prunent, an old clone of Piedmont’s noble grape variety.

Cantine Garrone applies their knowledge passed down for four generations, culture, tradition and passion In a land where wine production is documented since 1309. And with a lot more stories to tell.
