The Cogno family has been producing wine for four generations in Piedmont, with Elvio Cogno establishing his eponymous winery in 1990 on the historic Bricco Ravera hill near Novello. After restoring the 18th-century farmhouse and converting the granaries to wine cellars, Elvio devoted himself to traditional winemaking methods passed down from his father and grandfather. Now, his daughter Nadia and her husband Valter Fissore, who worked alongside Elvio for 25 years, continue the family legacy, producing elegant wines that honor the Langhe traditions, styles, and flavors. The winery sits atop Bricco Ravera, one of the finest crus in Novello, offering breathtaking views and a unique terroir.
A bright, rich ruby color with intense purplish highlights. The aroma is enveloping, aromatic and deep with noticeable spices on first impact and raspberry, strawberry, and ripe cherry notes. Finishing with pleasant harmonies of wild flowers. On the palate, it is well structured, fresh and has a supremely balanced acidity. The tannins are enveloping, and the flavors are reminiscent of sour cherries, blackberries and prunes.
