Alta Langa Diavoletto Mirafiore is an exceptionally elegant sparkling wine produced using the classic method from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes grown on the hills of Alta Langa. This wine stands out for its fine and persistent perlage, with bubbles that caress the palate, offering a sensation of freshness and liveliness. The color is a brilliant straw yellow with golden reflections. On the nose, Diavoletto Mirafiore offers a complex and fascinating bouquet, with notes of ripe fruit such as apple, pear, and citrus, enriched by floral nuances and hints of toasted bread, typical of long aging on the lees that is more than 48 months. On the palate, it is balanced and harmonious, with a pleasant acidity that perfectly balances the creamy structure of the wine. The finish is long and persistent, with a lingering aftertaste reminiscent of dried fruit and delicate spices. This sparkling wine is ideal as an aperitif, but it also pairs perfectly with fish dishes, shellfish, and soft cheeses.

The story of Casa E. di Mirafiore is deeply intertwined with the very roots of Piedmontese wine and its nobility. Founded in 1878 by Emanuele Alberto Guerrieri, Count of Mirafiore and son of the first King of Italy, the winery is located in the fertile territories of Barolo and Fontanafredda. Emanuele Alberto's vision, an entrepreneur of noble origins, revolutionized the wine world of the time with a modern approach to winemaking and a strong commitment to the community. Recently, Casa E. di Mirafiore has intensified its commitment to sustainability, achieving organic certification in 2018 and celebrating its first certified organic harvest. This orientation was further reinforced in 2022 with the publication of the first Sustainability Report and the acquisition of certifications for sustainable practices in its own 25 hectares in Serralunga, vegan products, and recognition as a "Historical Brand" by the Italian government, a sign of its historic contribution to the oenology of the Langhe, combining tradition and sustainable innovation.
