2022 Poderi Cellario Che Casein

Around 300 cases made, depending on the vintage. Deep cherry pink, vivid and unapologetic — raspberry, blueberry, cranberry, rhubarb, violet, and a whisper of rose, with juicy flesh, light pleasant tannins, and a bright acidity that pulls everything together into something refreshing and genuinely fun. The 2022 Poderi Cellario "Che Caseín!" is organically farmed from 30 hectares of vines at 400 meters in Carrù, southern Langhe — 12 indigenous Piedmontese varieties co-fermented together, spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel, four months on fine lees with bâtonnage, no sulfites added, unfiltered, unfined. Fausto and Cinzia Cellario are the third generation of their family on this land — and the first to bottle under their own name with natural wine convictions at the forefront.
