THE VINEYARDS
The Cascina Bongiovanni vineyards are located in the heart of the Langhe, in the Barolo production area and more specifically in the municipalities of: Castiglione Falletto, Serralunga, Diano, Roddino and Monforte. These are very strong soils, capable of characterizing the wines produced on them.
The management of the vineyards is carried out mainly through manual operations, with the utmost respect for the environment and its products. From the nutrition of the vine roots to the labeling of the bottled wine, passing through the production of the sugary bunches and their consequent transformation, all phases of the process must be resolved in perfect harmony.

BRASATO AL BAROLO – BEEF BRAISED IN BAROLO SAUCE
INGREDIENTS:
- Olive oil
- 1kg beef roasting joint
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 celery stick, dicd
- 1 carrot, peeled and diced
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 sprig of thyme
- 1 sprig of rosemary
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tbsp of tomato purée
- 750ml of Barolo wine
- Salt
- Pepper
HOW TO COOK
Heat a glug of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed casserole with a lid – it should be just big enough to hold the beef. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper then add to the pan and brown on all sides
Remove the beef from the casserole and set aside. Add the diced vegetables with the garlic into the same pan and cook until softened
Add the herbs and stir in the tomato puree. Cook for a couple of minutes, stirring to avoid it sticking. Return the beef to the pan
Pour the wine over the beef, bring up to a boil then turn down to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 2 hours. Stir every now and then to check nothing is sticking to the bottom of the pan, and if the wine doesn’t cover the beef, turn over every 30 minutes to prevent any part of it drying out
Remove the beef and set aside in a warm place. Using a hand blender, blitz the stew left in the casserole to create a glossy thick sauce
Carve the beef against the grain and lay on the bed of polenta. Pour over the sauce and serve the rest of the sauce on the side. Serve with a glass of Barolo wine
