Piedmont is a leading wine region in northwest Italy, world-renowned for its powerful red wines and elegant white wines. Dominated by prestigious grape varieties such as Nebbiolo, it is also the origin of the famous Barolo and Barbaresco wines. This region offers a great diversity of terroirs, particularly in Langhe, Alba, and Roero. The DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) and DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata Garantita) of Piedmont guarantee exceptional quality of expressive and complex wines.
Barbera d'Asti, Dolcetto, and Freisa offer lighter and fruitier wines, while Gattinara and Ghemme are excellent representatives of Piedmont's structured and tannic red wines. For white wine lovers, grape varieties such as Cortese and Arneis produce mineral and fresh wines, particularly around Gavi and Roero. In terms of sparkling wines, Moscato d'Asti and Asti Spumante are benchmarks for sparkling wines, with fruity and sweet aromas.

Filagnotti Gavi Blanc 2007
Stefano Bellotti
Filagnotti 2007 is much more than a wine: it is a piece of natural wine history, signed by Stefano Bellotti, a major figure in the peasant revival in Italy. This emblematic cuvée from the Cascina degli Ulivi estate, located in Novi Ligure in Piedmont, embodies the spirit of freedom and rigor that has always guided this pioneering winemaker, committed to biodynamics since the 1980s.
From the Filagnotti plot, one of the finest terroirs of Gavi DOCG, this 100% Cortese was vinified without inputs, with indigenous yeasts, without filtration or fining, then aged for a long time, most likely in old barrels, according to the estate's practices. At nearly 20 years old, this natural white wine demonstrates exceptional aging potential.
The nose is complex, evolved but lively, with notes of dry honey, baked apple, candied yellow fruits, straw, wax, and an ever-present mineral backbone. On the palate, the texture is full, silky, but retains a beautiful freshness, with a striking, vibrant, almost saline length.
Filagnotti 2007 is a gastronomic wine: it will pair wonderfully with roasted poultry, fish in sauce, an aged cheese such as a long-aged Parmesan, or even dishes based on white truffle from Piedmont. It is recommended to decant it for a long time and serve it between 12 and 14°C to appreciate all its complexity.
A rare testimony to the old age of a natural wine, still standing, vibrant, and memorable. A meditation wine, for enlightened connoisseurs.
