CURIOSITY
NADIA VERRUA CURRENTLY RUNS CASCINA TAVIJN, BUT HER FAMILY HAS BEEN MAKING WINES IN THESE HILLS FOR MORE THAN A CENTURY. THEY FARM LOCAL GRAPES AND HAZELNUT TREES ORGANICALLY AND ONLY USE WILD YEAST IN THE CELLAR. MINIMAL INTERVENTION IS THE AIM, AND THE RESULT ARE REMARKABLE WINES THAT PERFECTLY REFLECT THEIR LOCAL ENVIRONMENT AND THE CARE THAT WENT INTO GROWING THEM.
