Description

From: Casot, Treiso, Piedmont, Italy
Varietal: Arneis, Sauvignon Blanc

Taste: This is a pale straw-yellow color with subtle greenish reflections. On the nose is Bright citrus lemon zest and grapefruit with orchard fruits of pear, green apple, and white peach. The Arneis component contributes floral nuances of acacia and chamomile, while the Sauvignon Blanc adds an herbal edge with hints of fresh-cut grass, basil, and a touch of gooseberry. As the wine opens, subtle mineral notes emerge, reminiscent of wet stones and saline, with a slightly fresh bread crust. On the palate, citrus, and orchard fruit flavors carry through, complemented by delicate hints of almond and a slight saline quality. The time spent on the lees lends a rounded texture, softening the wine’s crisp edges while maintaining its energetic, refreshing character. The finish is long and clean, leaving lingering notes of lemon peel, white flowers, and a flinty minerality.


Pairing: Gambas al Ajillo, Spanish garlic shrimp sautéed in olive oil with chili and parsley, complements the wine’s citrus and mineral elements while balancing its richness. Branzino al Limone, Mediterranean-style grilled sea bass with lemon and herbs, highlights the wine’s herbal and floral notes while its acidity enhances the delicate fish. Fennel and Radicchio Salad with Anchovy and Egg adds a refreshing yet savory contrast, with the wine’s crispness softening the bitterness of radicchio, complementing the fennel’s freshness, and balancing the umami depth of anchovies and egg.

About: Cantina Nada Guiseppe, also known as Giuseppe Nada Wines, is situated in the Langhe region of Piedmont, Italy, producing wines that express the unique character of this UNESCO-protected landscape. In 1900, Antonio Nada, originally from Trezzo Tinella, moved to Treiso, settling in the locality of Casot. Casot is a historically significant area (MGA) within the Barbaresco appellation and has been owned by the Nada family for over 120 years. At the time, viticulture in the region was vastly different from today. Poverty and a lack of technical resources made life difficult, particularly during the wars when farming was focused more on subsistence than on fine wine production. However, in the 1950s, in the Langhe and Barbaresco area, a clearer focus on the region’s winemaking potential began to take shape.
