Lower Langa

Cadia Winery

Wine Producer in Roddi

The Cadia hill, from which the company takes its name, is located on the south-east ridge: an excellent position for the production of quality wines.

Various vineyards are planted here.

There are more recent plantings, such as Langhe Arneis and Sauvignon, alongside more historic ones like Barbera Superiore Palazzotto.

Every operation in the vineyard is carried out traditionally following integrated pest management criteria in order to obtain a genuine product with important organoleptic and sensory characteristics.

A story that
begins in 1913

in Roddi

A winery where you can breathe all the family passion

The company was founded back in 1913 thanks to grandfather Marcello, who over the years developed the cultivation of the vineyards, with the subsequent sale of grapes.

The turning point came in 1996: the current owner Bruno began wine production.

For him, taking care of the land is a passion passed down from generation to generation.

Over time, the company has grown thanks to targeted investments and a lot of willpower.

Today the winery remains family-run: his wife Mariella collaborates with their children Noemi and Alberto, always with the same care and dedication.

The Wines

Every stage, in the vineyard and in the cellar, plays a fundamental role, which is why wine is essentially a balance between natural factors and human commitment

The winery produces the classic wines of Langa, such as Dolcetto d’Alba DOC, Barbera d’Alba DOC, and Nebbiolo d’Alba DOC.

From the vinification of grapes coming from the single Palazzotto vineyard, the namesake Barbera d’Alba Superiore DOC is obtained, aged for about 12 months in French oak barriques.

Particular attention is paid to Verduno Pelaverga, one of the smallest DOCs in Italy, whose production is limited only to the municipalities of Roddi, Verduno, and La Morra.

Barolo DOCG Monvigliero

Barolo Monvigliero DOCG is produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes coming from the namesake additional geographical mention in the municipality of Verduno.

White wines

Langhe Arneis DOC, a typical Piedmontese white grape variety, has floral scents and is a fresh and balanced wine.

Sauvignon Abrigàt, the favorite wine of the owner Bruno, features mineral characteristics.

Excellent as an aperitif, it pairs well with fish due to its full and fruity flavor.

The range of white wines is completed by Chardonnay Avnì, which, with fermentation and subsequent aging in French oak barriques for about six months, is more complex and full-bodied.

Hazelnut production

The Piedmontese Trilobata Hazelnut is known as the best in the world thanks to its intense aroma, low fat content, and ease of preservation

The hazelnut, another local delicacy, represents 2% of world production but is recognized as the best quality on the market thanks to its intense aroma and persistent taste.

During the visit, you can walk through the six hectares of hazelnut groves adjacent to the winery and discover how these plants provide a unique product, perfect for sweet and savory recipes.

This fruit, cultivated by man since ancient times, was given as a gift to wish happiness and prosperity.

An alternative to chocolate

Hazelnuts have been present in the Langhe for centuries. These lands until a few decades ago were extremely poor. This dried fruit was mainly used as a substitute for chocolate: a complex flavor very similar to cocoa came out of its roasting. The hazelnut is in fact the basis of the production of Nutella.
