Cascina Sòt is the name of the ancient Langa farmstead, which according to some sources dates back more than 400 years.

Finely renovated, with an elegant tasting room, it is now home to the winery of the same name run by the Sanso family.

Maurizio, the young owner, assisted by his parents-in-law Silvana and Leonardo and sister Lorena, will welcome you to the farm, for the tour and guided tasting.

The vineyards

The vineyards are located between the lands adjacent to the winery, among the hills of Bricco San Pietro and San Giovanni, with a variable South/South-West and South/South-East exposure. The soil is calcareous clay.

Respect for the vineyard and for the environment are realized through the targeted use of pesticides, inter-row and under-row grassing.

In the Vineyard

The cellar is in a unique setting and allows you to follow the entire winemaking process

We are in the heart of the Barolo DOCG production area. Cascina Sòt is located in a panoramic and secluded position along the road that leads from Barolo to Monforte d’Alba.

Maurizio’s grandparents already worked here as sharecroppers.

With the purchase of the Cascina and the desire to orient production exclusively to viticulture, Cascina Sòt took on its current identity.

In the cellar they make the most of natural resources such as the winter cold and the low temperature of the water in an ancient well to control temperatures during the winemaking process.

Discover the Langhe territory by walking through the vineyard

On request, weather permitting, it is possible to take a walk in the vineyard. It is an opportunity to discover the territory, experience the rhythm of nature and enter the family dimension of our work
