Description
Coste della Sesia DOC Red
CAJANTO is a surprising blend of Nebbiolo and Vespolina.
After the harvests (Vespolina first, followed by Nebbiolo), the grapes are processed separately and blended after fermentation.
A blend of two traditional red grapes from Alto Piemonte, CAJANTO encapsulates the best of our terroir: the elegance of Nebbiolo with its hints of red fruit is combined with the characteristic elements of Vespolina such as peppery and herbaceous notes, with a perfect balance of tannins, freshness and minerality.
After centuries of family production and winemaking, CAJANTO was the first wine from our winery to be put on the market since the early 2000s. Being the family wine, it could only be named after the way Chiara Reda, mother of the current owners, pronounced "Montecavallo" as a child.
