The small family-run winery Ca ‘D Michel in Cossano Belbo brings the mind to the realities of the past, before the tourism boom.

It is immediately evident how the driving force of the producer is the love for nature in a broad sense: “not only wine“, the phrase often repeated on the company’s social networks, which among photos of the well-kept vegetable garden and uncontaminated greenery proves that here they produce with passion, not to satisfy the market demand.

The production of Valter and Samanta now has 8 labels (including a Moscato grappa) which include all the great classics of the area, each renamed with a purely Piedmontese name: we have for example Barbera d’Alba Desbéla, Dolcetto Bausana and Moscato d’Asti Asinèl d’Or.

We suggest a visit to Ca ‘D Michel to immerse yourself in the peasant world of the Langhe “without filters”, where authenticity is synonymous with quality and the wines have nothing to hide.

The Wines

The representative labels of the Bassa Langa, flanked by a production of bulk wines

Once mainly focused on bulk wine, the winery is now moving towards a more diversified production, ranging from bottled wine to typical products.

The wines produced are: Langhe DOC Balurda, Barbera d’Alba DOC Desbéla, Dolcetto d’Alba DOC Bausana, Langhe Favorita DOC Turnalunga, Moscato d’Asti DOCG Asinèl d’Or, Spumante Brut Privilegiò and the wine from overripe grapes Porta Pasiensa.

Depending on the wine it is also possible to buy different formats, such as Bag in Box or demijohns.

In addition to these labels they offer a grape juice for kids called “Fanciòt” and the Moscato grappa, slowly distilled from Moscato grapes, qualitatively excellent in the lands of Cossano Belbo.

Visits & Tastings

A tailor-made visit to discover the wines and get to know the producer.

Visiting Ca ‘D Michel literally means visiting the house of the producer, who welcomes you to his land with great warmth and enthusiasm.

There are no predefined tours or types of tasting, just a mutual getting to know each other and the sharing of a few glasses of wine, combined with platters of cheeses and cold cuts with breadsticks.

The price of the tasting varies according to the number of labels you want to taste:

  • 3 wines of your choice → € 5 per person
  • 5 wines of your choice → € 10 per person
  • all wines produced → € 15 per person

Booking is mandatory, precisely because there is no reception staff: between a job in the vineyard and one in the countryside, it will be Valter who will show up at the cellar door and guide you in the tasting!

The vegetable garden and typical products

As we anticipated, Ca ‘D Michel often emphasizes the concept of “not just wine”.

The production of wine is in fact also accompanied by that of typical products, including cognà, balsamic vinegar, saffron, toasted hazelnuts, oil, jams, products in alcohol and fresh fruit and vegetables.
