High in the hills of Carrù (the very door to the Langhe) lies Lafrea, the highest plot in Poderi Cellario’s vineyards. Fausto and Cinzia Cellario work this land with resilience. He re, they grow 100% Favorita (Vermentino’s Piemontese twin!) in poor, limestone-rich soils, farming organically and intervening as little as possible. The grapes are pressed and fermented in stainless steel for purity, then aged six months in concrete to round the edges and deepen the texture. The result is a wine that’s both delicate and electric. It smells of honeydew melon, white nectarine, and sun-dried grass, while the palate hums with citrus zest and wet stone energy. Light on its feet but serious in spirit, it’s the kind of white you reach for again and again. Pair with crudo drizzled with lemon, herbed goat cheese, or simply a warm afternoon on the patio. This wine is for those who like their whites crisp, clean, and full of mountain energy. Show more
