La Gironda has been family-run in Nizza Monferrato since 2000, and it takes the green side seriously — ISO 14001 certified, the vineyards worked by hand with as little intervention as they can manage. Barbera sits at the centre.
The wines go from the Barbera d'Asti 'La Lippa' and the Superiore 'La Gena' to the Nizza DOCG 'Le Nicchie', with Monferrato reds, a Sauvignon, Moscato and Brachetto, and the Metodo Classico 'Galandrino'. Book ahead and you can walk the vineyards and cellar and taste with Nizza laid out below you.
