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.

The color is an intense garnet with orange reflections. On the nose, it is elegant, revealing notes of violets, small red fruits, and leather. The palate is structured and harmonious, with persistent yet soft tannins.
