Description
The Campolungo Barbera d’Asti from Cascina Vengore is a deliciously bright and approachable example of the grape. Packed with intense cherry and blueberry fruit, the wine has an appealing juiciness and pefectly poised acidity. This unoaked red is a versatile food match and will happily accompany antipasti or a more robust risotto.
Campolungo refers to the wooded, upper parts of the property. The vineyards fall down to the valley floor where cooler air originates and provides perfume and freshness to the wines. Cascina Vengore sits in a natural amphitheatre that used to be a Roman Estate. Established in 2012 by young vigneron Lucrezia Povero, this fully certified organic estate makes wines with purity, freshness and a true sense of place. The Cascina Vengore wines have a different style to the terrific value offerings from Cantine Povero (the family estate, and one of our favourite producers), and are well worth exploring.

2023 Gamay, Domaine Moulin Camus, IGP Loire
Gamay
This 100% Gamay from Domaine Moulin Camus comes from grapes grown on a slope of pure mica schist which gives the wine juicy, rounded red fruits a bit of tautness and minerality. A warmer than normal, sulphur free maceration for three days helps bring out some warmth and roundness to the fruit, making it slightly beaujolais'esque but without the bubble gum/commercial edge that one would normally find in this price range.
