Appuntamenti

La Cantina

Azienda Agricola Cocito Dario is located in the Asti area on the border between Agliano Terme and Costigliole d’Asti, areas highly suited to the production of Barbera d’Asti.

The reception

You will be welcomed by members of the Cocito family-Dario, Sergio and Nadia-who will guide you through the farm premises.

You will see the authentic places of work: there are no routes, exhibitions or displays dedicated to tourists.

How the visit takes place

The tour begins in the vineyards, where the vegetative stages of the vine and the work that takes place here are explained. We then move on to the winemaking rooms, where the stainless steel tanks used for fermentation are located.

In the winery’s barrique cellar you will find the barrels that store the wine throughout the months of aging, until it is bottled.

Last, the most engaging part of the visit: the guided tasting. You are the star here because you will have the opportunity to personally choose which labels to taste.

Also, if you visit the winery when the wines are still being aged, you can taste them tapped straight from the barrel!
