Good to Know: Azienda Agricola Elvio Cogno started to produce wines to serve tables and hungry patrons at the Ristorante dell’Angelo in La Morra back in 1936. Their family has long cultivated grapevines for generations. The wine produced by the Cogno family performed more than they expected. It not only served their restaurant patrons but also distinguished itself as an excellent wine.

This success brought Elvio Cogno to leave the restaurant business to produce wines in full time. A business partner supported this decision as his wine showed great reputation. A collaboration between Cogno and the Marcarini winery began as this winery have been managing splendid vineyards in Brunate in the town of La Morra. There, they cultivated Nebbiolo for Barolo.

Elvio’s work pushed towards a goal of producing wine of higher quality and developing the potential of wines in Langhe.

Now the hills of the vineyard in Novello have become world-renowned for their history and excellence recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage.

Following Elvio Cogno, Nadia Cogno and Valter Fissore now carries the legacy between four generations of winemakers and vine growers.

Elvio Cogno Barolo Vigna Elena is for Barolo purists. A wine that makes no reductions to market demands or taste trends. An honest and respectable Barolo. The wine is full, brilliant carnet red in color. A clean-cut perfume with notes of rose petal, sweet spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. It has a scent of fine tobacco, mint, plust a slight whiff of licorice. On palate it is full-flavored, full-bodied and eloping with suggestions of fresh spices and red fruits. With the 36 months of aging in large barrels, the tannins have become expressive and silky. The after taste serves a strong fruit comeback.

Best served with pasta dishes with game sauces, roast and braised red meat, meaty stew, mature or blue cheeses.

Elvio Cogno Barolo Vigna Elena 2018 is a distinguished Riserva from the Ravera cru in Novello, showcasing the estate’s dedication to crafting refined, terroir-driven Barolo. Made from 100% Nebbiolo and aged for around 36 months in large Slavonian oak followed by further bottle aging, it delivers a layered and elegant profile. The wine opens with aromas of sour cherry, raspberry, rose petals, wild herbs, and mixed spices, while the palate reveals flavors of cranberry, red plum, and subtle anise, framed by fine tannins and fresh acidity. Full-bodied yet polished, it balances richness and lift, offering both immediate enjoyment with decanting and excellent aging potential through the 2030s and beyond. Ideal with braised meats, game, mushrooms, or aged cheese, Vigna Elena 2018 is a powerful yet graceful expression of Ravera’s high-altitude finesse.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great wine bar. They offer a wide selection of wine & the tapas are delicious. I didn't think I'd enjoy bread with olive oil as much as I did! Gambas, patè & croquettes were also delicious. We went at around 2pm and it was quiet - we just wanted something light and available. I believe they offer a variety of meats that has to be pre ordered? We would love to come back. Also, very good service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Txanton offers a focused and authentic take on Spanish dining, grounded in its role as a jamonería and its clear respect for quality produce and tradition. At the heart of the menu is the jamón. The jamón tasting menu is particularly impressive, presenting six different varieties that span the full spectrum of cured ham, each one expertly prepared and deeply flavourful. The supporting dishes are equally strong, including excellent gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimps), a rich and comforting arroz cremoso con frutos de mar (seafood creamy rice), and bold chorizo picante a la brasa (spicy chorizo) with smoky depth. Dessert is distinctive and well judged, with the crema de queso (cream cheese) paired beautifully with PX wine, raisins, and a Tempranillo cookie. Service is relaxed and courteous, with staff providing thoughtful recommendations and attentive care throughout. The setting is welcoming and unpretentious, echoing the atmosphere of a traditional Spanish dining room - ideal for sharing plates, conversation, and good wine. Txanton succeeds in delivering a genuine Spanish experience, excelling in its jamón while offering a consistently well-executed menu.
