The Cogno family has been making wine for four generations in Piedmont. In 1990, Elvio Cogno left a long and fruitful partnership with the venerable Barolo producer Marcarini in La Morra and bought a historic 18th-century farmhouse on the top of Bricco Ravera in the commune of Novello. For the next 20 years he devoted himself to the winemaking traditions handed down to him by his father and grandfather. Cascina Nuova is the the area directly around the winery in a subsection of the super-famous Ravera vineyard.
