La Cantina
The Fratelli Novara winery produces a very limited number of bottles, only 10,000 annually. With only 6 hectares of vineyard, cultivated in the municipality of Cisterna d’Asti, it is one of the smallest wineries in the Roero region.
An innovative spirit and respect for family traditions represent a constant commitment.
Through the guidance of their father Giuseppe Novara, sons Antonello and Riccardo introduced modern production processes.
The philosophy
The aim is to offer a quality product that reflects the family’s sincere and direct spirit.
You won’t find a ceremonious welcoming, large tasting halls or wines to be put to one side for the holidays. The philosophy is based on genuineness and the pleasure of offering wines to be savored on a daily basis.
