Bottled at the source by the producer, this Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOC) wine is crafted from Freisa, a traditional Piedmontese grape variety closely related to Nebbiolo. Historically cultivated in areas like Asti and Chieri, Freisa is deeply rooted in the local winemaking heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePiedmont is globally recognized as one of the most prestigious wine regions, characterized by its dramatic, steep hills that are often enveloped in thick autumn morning fog. This landscape, bordered by the Alps, provides a unique terroir that local winemakers focus on intensely. Within this region lies the Monferrato appellation, a UNESCO World Heritage site covering the hills of the Asti and Alessandria provinces. Monferrato is known for its strong regional identity and serves as a flexible umbrella appellation for a wide variety of wine types.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to the producer, this specific wine is made in a style that honors the traditions of past generations. In the wines of their grandparents, this grape was often used to create what was locally known as \"bùta stûpa\"—a wine that opens with a lively pop. This is achieved through a slight refermentation in the bottle, a traditional method that imparts a natural, gentle effervescence to the wine. Cantina Sociale di Casorzo has chosen to present this 2002 vintage in this exact traditional guise, preserving a classic Piedmontese winemaking technique.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cantina Sociale di Casorzo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57655517937990,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-1586_13be86d9-c1a9-42ba-a79a-f0a87e0d29ed.jpg?v=1792403493","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.com\/products\/monferrato-freisa-cantina-sociale-di-casorzo-2002","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
