. . . to Cascina Fontana.

We are a small family wine estate located in the Barolo hills of Le Langhe, south of Alba, in Piedmont, Northwest Italy. This is an area of rare majestic beauty, with vine-covered hills and castle-topped communities looking across to each other over steep, plunging valleys.

Here, in our beautiful land dedicated to the production of wine, my family have grown grapes and produced wines for at least six generations.

Today I continue to grow the traditional grapes of Le Langhe, Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo, to produce a range of classic wines that are thoroughly rooted in the traditions of my land. I learned winemaking from my grandfather Saverio and I still do many things ‘come una volta’, as in the past, as my grandfather himself would have done.

I pride myself above all on making genuine wines that are natural, true expressions of nostro territorio – our land and our culture.

I invite you to come to Le Langhe to taste and discover the wines of Cascina Fontana as well as our beautiful land for yourselves.”

a presto,

- Mario Fontana
