Description

The Azienda Agricola Cascina Chicco is the proud interpreter of Roero wine civilisation . It is found in the heart of the Roero and has a solid wine tradition behind it. The company came about with the purchase of different vine-yards in the most important area of the Roero. In addition to the 8 hectares situated around the historical lands of Canale (Anterisio, Coroania,Mompissano) there are now also the estates of Vezza d'Alba (Valmaggiore), Castellinaldo (Granera Alta, Bric Loira) and recently the land in Castagnito (Costa). Today the Cascina Chicco has 20 hectares of vine-yards, all of which are on hills and produce esteemed wines such as Arneis, Nebbiolo d'Alba, Roero, Barbera d'Alba,Favorita and Brachetto. All the Cascina Chicco wines are made in a modern and purpose built cellar, built with materials and criteria of local tradition.

Anterisio: This name indicates one of the most elegant and powerful athletic gestures in the game of 'Balon' the most traditional sport of these hills. The Arcass expresses the untamed farming pride, which is able to overcome any kind of difficulty.

Granera Alta-Bric Loira: Granera Alta - Bric Loira: The 'Cassina della Granera Nuova', found on the 'fini' of Castellinaldo, were owned by the counts Malabaila of Canale. Vineyards were already present from the middle of the 1700s.

Mompissano: Rich in history, as can be read in a document dating back to 1534- 'fieri solent custodie tempore belli'. It was the property of the lords of Loreto and Roero and it has been completely covered with vine-yards since the 1500s.

Valmaggiore: The village of 'Valmaggiore' in the territory of Vezza d'Alba is famous for the quality of its Nebbiolo vines. Cristina of France and Filippo of Agliè, in 1640 made great use of the Nebbiolo in Valmaggiore.

A quite common toponomy amongst the medieval lords and it indicates the sloping ridge that goes rapidly down towards the valley with the typical vine-yard landscape.
