Mario and Gianfranco Torelli's Cascina Milana at Bubbio, in the heart of the Asti Langa, is an unequivocal example of the tremendous potential that the wines grown on these hills can offer in terms of quality.
These steep slopes, which are so hard to walk and to farm, provide a very precious soil and environment which is well-suited to handling such widely-tried grape varieties as Moscato, Brachetto, Dolcetto,Barbera e Chardonnay.

Mario and Gianfranco Torelli have understood their hills, and have gladly accepted to share their difficult features, continuing day-by-day to take advantage of their valuable qualities whilst taking care not to damage the delicate natural equilibrium which has kept them intact over the years.
Meanwhile they have also taken the opportunity to re-introduce other elements of local tradition: the dry stone walls, the empirical but precise rain-water drainage system, the simple, distinctive rural building style, and the warmth of the family environment, all in a nineteenth-century stone and red-brick farmhouse.
