We are proud to share a major milestone for Cascina Garitina.

Nizza DOCG ‘Gianola’ has been awarded with a Gold Medal (94 Points) by Vinum Magazine, cementing its place among the Top Wines of Piedmont.

This achievement reflects the deep commitment to the Nizza terroir and the passion poured into every single vintage.

A huge thank you to Vinum – Magazin für Weinkultur for this incredible honor.

Cascina Garitina is founded in 1900 and is a family-run farm, now in its fourth generation with Gianluca Morino, the current owner, supported by Pasquale, Alessandra, Gaia and Veronica.
The name of the company is due to the great-grandmother Margherita, whose diminutive “Margheritina” in dialect is precisely Garitina; she started the business back in 1900 then continued by her grandfather Giovanni and her parents Pasquale and Assunta.

The activity of the farm is oriented towards the enhancement of Barbera, the vine that extends over most of their vineyards, and to which the land with the best exposures are reserved. In particular, the oldest vineyards are dedicated to the production of Nizza docg. The vineyards are located in the heart of Alto Monferrato, in the southern sector of Nizza DOCG and are divided between 85% Barbera and the remaining 15% between Brachetto, Dolcetto, Pinot Nero, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

NIZZA DOCG

Nizza Docg is produced entirely from Barbera grapes in a restricted area that includes 18 municipalities around Nizza Monferrato. A production disciplinary has set very strict constraints, to maintain high quality standards of grapes and wines.
