We are in Moasca, halfway between Nizza Monferrato and Canelli.
A small village that few people know about, but which is full of history and winemaking vocation.
Many companies have made wine here in the past, but focused exclusively on the sale of bulk wine in demijohns to private customers.
My idea of making wine was different from the beginning.
Between the rows we work with organic fertilizers and green manures every other year and we take care to carry out only the strictly necessary treatments, respecting the land and us who live and breathe here.
Between Asti and Nizza on dark calcareous and clayey soils with the presence of grey tuff on the surface because there was once the sea here.
This special conformation gives Barbera more balsamic than fruity.
In Moasca, on calcareous soils rich in clay, from old vineyards facing south and characterized by steep slopes.
Chardonnay, Freisa, Favorita, Sangiovese and Dolcetto.
Very calcareous soils with a sandy vein (the only one in the entire valley) corresponding to the Chardonnay vineyards.
Barbera and Moscato are the two souls of Tenuta il Nespolo and this territory
Tenuta il Nespolo works on 13 hectares of vineyards, all of which are located within a maximum radius of 5 kilometers from the winery, between Asti and Nizza Monferrato, at around 350 meters above sea level, to which are added 5 hectares of fields and meadows .
