Viale Pietro Laudano, 2,

Araldica Castelvero was founded in 1954 in Castel Boglione, in the province of Asti, with the aim of promoting the winemaking heritage of Monferrato. Following decades of investment in both vineyards and winery facilities, the growth of its membership and expansion into major international markets, today its 180 growers farm approximately 1,300 hectares of vineyards across Monferrato, Langhe, Roero and the Gavi area. Quality, an easy-drinking style and fair pricing are the principles at the heart of the winery. Araldica’s Nizza is part of the Alasia range, created to showcase the work carried out in the vineyard and produce wines with character, clear varietal expression and a distinctive personality. Member growers reserve their finest vineyard parcels for this range.
