Nascetta
Its Origins
After working with Marcarini in La Morra, Elvio Cogno returned to his family village in 1990 to rebuild an historical farm into the home of one of Piedmont's more important Barolo producers. Now daughter Nadia and her husband Valter Fissore are the force behind the rising fortunes of the house, producing strictly classic wines with modern cleanliness and technique, low yields and sustainable, closely managed vineyards.
What The Critics Say
95/100 Wine Enthusiast, Jeff Porter (2021 vintage)
"From the estate that brought back Nascetta, this wine is all class. Opening aromas reveal melon, pineapple, white flowers and creamy citrus notes. It's beautiful on the palate with depth, texture and layers of mixed citrus and tropical fruits. Drink now, or cellar it to see how unique this grape really is."
93/100 Parker's Wine Advocate, Monica Larner (2022 vintage)
"A wine like this adds an exciting splash of gold to a wine region that is celebrated for its ruby reds. Always refreshing, the Elvio Cogno 2022 Langhe Nascetta del Comune di Novello Anas-Cëtta offers an exciting change of pace with honeysuckle, white peach, apple and quince. There are salty hints of crushed mineral too. The wine shows medium body and enough textural density to pair with baked fish or white meat. Some 18,000 bottles were made."
17/20 JancisRobinson.com (2022 vintage)
"‘Brilliant straw with a golden tinge. A noble nose of savoury lemon with hints of hazelnut and oatmeal. Really develops in the glass. Rich lemon fruit that is completely dry. Long and linear and with plenty of stuffing. (WS)."
