- vineyard
consists of different varieties of grapes, some autochthonous, as Doux D'Henry and Chatus, others more known as Barbera, Bonarda and Neretta Cuneese. The southern exposure of the hill, let us produce a good red wine, the wine Ciabutin, the alcohol content of around 13-14 °.
Since 2022 the production of Ciabutin has been entrusted directly to the Giro di Vite farm, which directly takes care of the vines in the field and the vinification at its cellar, in Pinerolo: https://www.girodivite.eu/ (possibility of visits and tastings by reservation).
Description Red Wine Il Ciabutin by a Sommelier:
The first impression is the deep, compact and shining purple red in the glass. It already gives a hint for the natural way of wine production.
The nose is initially affected by the aroma derived from the spontaneous fermentation. Giving the wine some time and air, a refreshing and intensive bouquet of cool fruits, cassis and plums combined with dark chocolate and herbs from the vineyard appears.
Lively, juicy and fresh is the impression having the wine in the mouth.
The moderate structure, the present but soft tannins, the nice integrated alcohol and a bit excluded acidity complete the picture. The finish is again juicy and lively. In total a harmonic and joyful wine pleasure of a very natural made wine.
Drinking suggestions: 18 - 20°C, Bordeaux-Glass, open bottle 1 hour before or use decanter.
- fruits
especially pome fruit, from which we obtain the clear apple juice, all 100% natural: we have never used any plant protection product, the streets with the passage of vehicles and the cultivated fields of the plains are far away and so there is not pollution.
- wildflower honey
in 2015 we started the breeding of bees and the wildflower honey production to give a small personal contribution to their fundamental importance for pollination and the overall environmental balance. We started with 10 hives and early our bees have been very involved in building new foundations for their nests and in raising their families. We discovered how fascinating their world is, how much work there is to be part of the thousands of bees that make up a family and how many difficulties and dangers are subject.
Unfortunately in 2021 we closed it, but we have a beekeeper right next to us, whose laboratory you can visit, taste the varieties of honey and discover a lot of interesting information about the world of bees.
