ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
At the gates of Castiglione Falletto, one of the premier areas for cultivating Nebbiolo, Campo Costa is a small, sustainable agricultural project dedicated to bringing the most classic expressions of Piemonte's prestigious wines to market. The winery is nestled among picturesque vineyards on steep slopes, creating an ideal environment for Nebbiolo grapes to thrive.
