Colombera & Garella's Coste della Sesia is the mid-tier expression in their range and a wonderful introduction to Alto Piemonte from one of the region's very best producers. The blend is roughly 65% Nebbiolo with Croatina and Vespolina, grown on the volcanic-derived sandy soils of the Biellese hills — much more acidic than the Langhe's clay-limestone, which translates into lower alcohol, brisker acid, and a unique mineral character with a faint sanguine iron lift. Aromatics are the heart of the wine: rose petal, mint, orange peel, and sweet red-berry fruit, all framed by chalky lift and ethereal lightness. Far more than just a Barolo alternative — its own thing entirely.

90 points

"The 2020 Rosso Cascina Cottignano is gorgeous and light on its feet, with striking inner perfume and tons of pure class. Sweet red berry fruit, rose peal, mint, orange peel and chalk are all nicely lifted in this attractive, ethereal Nebbiolo-based red." —Antonio Galloni

More about Colombera & Garella

C & G is one of the region's very best producers. Their wines are picture-perfect representations of the Alto Piemonte's varied terroirs. Their farming is organic and their winemaking natural, and nothing interferes with their deliciously elegant expressions of northerly Nebbiolo, Croatina and Vespolina.

Why the fuss about the Alto Piemonte? It's not just the northern spin, or the mountainous terroir. It's also a matter of soils. The Alto Piemonte's volcanic soils are much more acidic than the Langhe's soils, which makes for lower alcohol levels and gives the wines a whole variety of unique mineral notes as well, sometimes, as an almost sanguine irony undercurrent. Married to the floral aromatics and beautiful fruit, these are really special wines. They are not just "Barolo alternatives."
