Il Cascinone was acquired by leading Piemonte producer Araldica in 1999 - an exceptional estate in the Monferrato hills which has undergone extensive restoration and replanting. The 'Il Cascinone' range is produced with grapes sourced from Araldica’s most prized vineyards, both on the estate itself and from other selected sites. The Araldica winemaking team of Claudio Manera, Lella Burdese and Carlo Manera oversee all production.
Fontanino Riesling wine is a dry, minerally and textured Riesling that shows the potential for the variety in Piemonte. A fine, delicate dry white with classic Riesling aromas of lime, petrol and a touch of lemongrass. The palate has lively citrus and stone fruit characters balanced by crisp acidity and mineral notes. Fine and complex on the finish with the ability to age. A great match with fish, chicken, crisp salads, or pork dishes.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
