Description
Cascina Lo Zoccolaio follows exactly the process of tradition. In the vineyard, the grapes are treated with love and respect. Without the use of herbicides, controlled grassing through green manure is maintained between the rows, respecting the rhythms of nature. Harvesting is done strictly by hand, selecting only the best grapes with a lower yield to obtain better quality. This Barolo is a blend of grapes from vineyards located only in Barolo and Monforte d'Alba.
