Le Strette is one of the wineries pioneering the rediscovery of Langhe DOC Nas-cëtta in the municipality of Novello, its historical homeland.

The winery is run by brothers Mauro and Savio Daniele.

The daily work in the vineyard and in the winery is aimed at enhancing the territory linked to historical native grape varieties that are often little known or almost disappeared.

In one of the most renowned areas for growing Nebbiolo grapes, production includes four labels of Barolo DOCG, two of Langhe Nas-cëtta del Comune di Novello DOC, Langhe Nebbiolo DOC, Barbera d’Alba DOC and Dolcetto d’Alba DOC.

The owners personally conduct the visit

A visit to both the New Cellar premises and the historic cellar that now encloses the tasting room is planned.

Weather permitting, the vineyard walk can be arranged.

The Cellar, well integrated into the hillside that masks it, is a mix of modernity and functionality.

It is carved out of tuff, a magmatic rock that allows for ideal and constant conditions for wine maturation.

The Wines

The company is certified according to the National Quality System of Integrated Production

At the winery you can taste and buy Nas-cëtta, four labels of Barolo, Barbera d’Alba Superiore, Dolcetto d’Alba and Langhe Nebbiolo.

Barolo Bergera-Pezzole and Corini-Pallaretta come from two interesting crus in the commune of Novello. In contrast, the Bergeisa cru is located in the commune of Barolo.

The fourth type of Barolo is obtained byblending in varying proportions the three estate crus, so as to enhance the complexity of this wine.

The winemaking rooms

During the tour you will visit the rooms that house the steel tanks where Novello Nas-cëtta and Dolcetto await bottling and the wooden aging rooms where Barbera d’Alba, Langhe Nebbiolo and Barolo age.

From here you reach the bottle shop and the bottling and packaging room.

The Nas-cëtta of Novello

The key contribution to the recognition of an indigenous wine

The production of Nas-cëtta at Le Stretteis about 9,000 bottles/year, plus 1,500 bottles made from the crü Pasinot ®, historic vineyard and cradle of Nas-cëtta.

The Pasinotti Project

Pasinotti is the historic hill of Nas-cëtta on which the oldest vineyard dated 1948 falls.

Here the company has invested, since 2014, in a planting project to restore vineyard areas, aimed at enhancing their territorial distinctiveness.

The area, in the southern part of the municipality of Novello, includes a vineyard collection of 750 vines obtained from the selection and multiplication of 29 old healthy plants identified in three different Novello vineyards (including the oldest Pasinotti vineyard).

This Project was created in collaboration with Dr. Stefano Raimondi of the University of Turin.

A unique all-Piedmontese native.

An appellation that had almost completely disappeared, Nas-cëtta has been rediscovered since the mid-1990s thanks to the efforts of a few winemakers. Crucial to the rediscovery and enhancement was the work of the Le Strette Company.
