Cecilia Monte
A Woman's story

Within the Langhe district, often characterised by male stories, Cecilia Monte, a Winegrower from Neive, as the company logo says, represents one of the rare ‘female examples’ belonging to the firmament of Piedmontese wine excellences.

In the year 2000, after completing her university course, she decided to directly manage the family estate, located in a wonderful and little known corner of the prestigious town of Neive and began to transform a high vocation piece of land, hitherto used to provide grapes to cooperatives, in a new story, starting to vinify her own grapes and bottle her own wine. Her father Paolo, still actively present in the company, to whom moreover a Barbaresco has been dedicated taken from his favourite rows, passed on to his daughter the same feeling that he had felt at the beginning in trying his hand at such a fascinating and arduous task.

Cecelia Monte Description

Barbaresco
Serracapelli

Vine: 100% Nebbiolo.

The grapes come from vineyards planted in the early 2000s. The yield per hectare is approx. 7,000 kg. Maceration takes place for approx. 10 days and is accompanied by frequent daily pumping over. Vinification takes place at a controlled temperature of less than 30° and malolactic fermentation takes place inside steel tanks. The permanence in steel and non-invasive contact with the wood, preferably not new, allow all the dynamic characteristics and the high point of drinkability that underlie this extraordinary vine to be maintained.
