Great care was taken in the choice of the vineyards, as location is an essential factor for the production of superior wines. La Gironda lies in the very heart of Monferrato, at the center of the most important and prestigious wine-making area in the Asti district, at an altitude of about 200-400 meters above sea level where the soil, the vines, the climate, the culture, and the tradition come together to express the “terroir,” one of the most important in the region of Piedmont. Nizza is the name of the town where the estate is situated, and it is now also the name of the new appellation Nizza DOCG-the area of excellence for the Barbera d’Asti (the Nizza production area is strictly limited, from the cultivation and oenological viewpoint). They also produce Moscato d’Asti DOCG, Brachetto d’Acqui DOCG, Piemonte DOC Sauvignon, and Monferrato DOC.<br> <br> The winemakers cultivate and tend the 7 hectares of vines with maximum respect for the environment. They use only traditional techniques in the winery, with minimum technology, and the vines are only treated with product based on copper or sulfur, with no use of herbicides to clear the ground beneath the vines. For this and other systems that are in place, the winery has obtained the ISO14001 Certificate. This commitment on the part of the estate reflects its drive towards product excellence and environmental sustainability.

    Happy Wine

    Happy Wine. Pleasant fragrance. For those who does not like the strong wine, this could be their choice. Light fizz, fruity flavor and easy to drink. Chilled or not, it's good.

    Enjoyable wine

    Enjoyable wine. The amount of sweetness that is not too sweet, acidity and fruitiness were just balance, giving a thoroughly enjoyable drink with a long finish that linger in your mouth and tempting you to take another sip, and another and another....

    Must try!

    Tried this during Wine Connection's tasting fair 2022 and fall in love immediately! For Moscato sweet wine lover, though it's a different type of grape.
