The couple specializes in hand crafting micro-lots of mountain wines which vividly telegraph the breathtaking majesty of this remote location in far northwestern Piedmont.  Melognis’ vines grow as part of a polycultural blueberry-, kiwi-, plum-, and cheese-producing farm, and it's a blast to visit! There are feline and canine friends everywhere, plus small herds of sheep, cows and goats milling around every vineyard. Vineyards sit between 1,400 and 2,300 feet elevation in glacial rock and gravel, and you can taste the pure Alpine terroir, elevation, and Mediterranean sun. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rock Juice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41899957256250,"sku":"MELDIV24","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0014\/1538\/1050\/files\/2024CascinaMelognis_Divicaroli_Pelaverga.jpg?v=1794503185","url":"https:\/\/rockjuiceinc.com\/products\/2024-cascina-melognis-divicaroli-pelaverga","provider":"Rock Juice ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
