La Cantina
Cascina Sòt is the name of this ancient Langa farmhouse, which according to some sources dates back to over 400 years ago.
Finely restored, with an elegant tasting room, it is now home to the Winery that bears the same name, run by the Sanso family.
Maurizio, the young owner, assisted by his parents Silvana and Leonardo and by his sister Lorena, will welcome you to the company, for a visit and a guided tasting session.
The vineyards
The vineyards are located amongst the Farmstead’s adjacent lands, between the hills of Bricco San Pietro and San Giovanni, with a variable exposure ranging from South/South-West and South/South-East. The soil is clayey-calcareous.
Respect for the vineyard and the environment is reflected in the targeted use of pesticides and grassing between and under the rows.
