Cogno Elvio Azienda Agricola: elegance of Barolo di Novello
The collection Cogno Elvio Azienda Agricola gathers some of the most representative wines from one of the most appreciated realities in Novello, in the heart of Langa. Here, Barolo finds a classic and territorial expression, with wines capable of uniting finesse, depth, and great identity, especially when they come from the historic area of Ravera, among the most prestigious and recognizable crus of the territory.
The winery is linked to the Fissore Cogno family and the work of Valter Fissore, who has been able to continue Elvio Cogno's vision while maintaining an authentic connection with the vineyard and the style of the denomination. The result is balanced, elegant, and characterful wines, built on long fermentations, careful aging, and a very precise interpretation of Nebbiolo and other indigenous Piedmontese varieties.
The wines of the selection
In this collection, you will find labels that coherently tell the profile of the winery, from Barolo DOCG Ravera in its various vintages and interpretations, to Barolo DOCG Riserva “Vigna Elena”, up to Barolo DOCG Cascina Nuova. The selection also includes Barolo DOCG Bricco Pernice 2016, Barolo Bricco Ravera DOCG Bricco Pernice, Barbaresco DOCG Bordini, and Barbera d’Alba Pre-Phylloxera, offering a complete overview of the Cogno Elvio Azienda Agricola style.
Each wine expresses a precise idea of Piedmontese elegance: structure, measure, aromatic depth, and a tannic weave that accompanies without overwhelming. It is an ideal selection for those looking for bottles capable of evolving over time, but also of offering a clear reading of the Langhe and Roero territory right from the start.
Territory, grape varieties, and style
The heart of the production is Nebbiolo, the principal grape of Barolo and Barbaresco, accompanied by Dolcetto, Barbera, and Nascetta. The cultivation takes place in respect of the biological balance of the vine, with low yields per hectare and attention to the quality of the grapes. This approach, combined with a winery carved out of the ancient granaries of an 18th-century farmhouse, gives life to sincere wines, with a classic imprint, rich but never excessive.
The Barolo from the winery is particularly linked to the area of Ravera, known for velvety, elegant, and deep wines. These are labels that speak to enthusiasts of traditional Barolo, but also to those who wish to discover a refined and very territorial reading of the Langhe.
Recommended pairings
The wines of the collection lend themselves to important pairings, particularly with red meats, wild game, and structured preparations of Piedmontese cuisine. Nebbiolo, thanks to its complexity, also pairs very well with aged cheeses, making the serving moment more complete and gastronomic.
