Ca’ de Lion was founded in 1871 by Luigi Ghione, who was inspired by his farthest ancestor, Leone Ghione (1655), from whom the winery took its name. From then, five generations are gone and the winery takes care of its history, affairs and evolutions of technique. Last 50 years are the consolidations of company development and awareness: Ca’ de Lion produces and vinifies all its wines with last technologies about bottling and product processing. But it’s Tradition the key word for this company reality: respect for territory grapes, respect for traditional wine making practices, respect for their roots and for the time’s lessons.

Winemaking

The wine bottle, serving fresh, seems to be covered with the winter frost , in Piedmontese language “Galaverna”, that dresses everything of white and freezing crystals.

Soft pressing of the grapes, fermentation in autoclave with second fermentation and subsequent isobaric bottling.

Tasting notes

Straw yellow colour, fine perlage, hints of acacia and lime tree blossom. Dry and fruity flavor.

Recommended serving temperature: 8°C

Pairing recommendation

It’s perfect as aperitif and with appetizers.
