Located, as its name suggests, at the foot of the Alps bordering France and Switzerland, Piedmont is the second largest of Italy\u2019s 20 regions, after Sicily.<\/p>\n
Recognized for its industry like Fiat in Turin, Piedmont is also one of the greatest regions in the world in terms of cuisine (don\u2019t forget the white truffles from Alba!) and wine!<\/p>\n
With 46 DOC and 4 DOCG, Piedmont has more wine appellations than any other Italian region.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”17553″ img_size=”400×200″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
The winery was founded by Riccardo Ceretto in the 1930s.<\/p>\n
In 1968, his sons acquired their first proprietary vineyard, Bricco Asili, in Barbaresco.<\/p>\n
The third generation entered the business in 1999, with Federico now serving as CEO.<\/p>\n
Committed to sustainability, the winery achieved organic certifications for all its wines in 2015.<\/p>\n
Presently, the Ceretto family is renowned as one of the premier producers of Barolo and Barbaresco in Piemonte.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
“The purity of fruit and flowers is exceptional with lavender and blue berry aromas that follow through to a medium to full body with ultra-fine tannins and a long and racy finish. Better in four or five years but shows its greatness already. One of the great Brunate\u2019s from here in a long time.<\/em>“ – James Suckling, 98pts<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n “This wine sees fruit sourced from one of the most distinctive crus in the appellation that is known for elegant and powerful wines. The organic 2019 Barolo Brunate has power and a good amount of brawn, whereas wines from La Morra tend to be softer and silkier overall. This wine, however, shows dark fruit flavors, pretty chalky mineral definition and fragrant iris. Everything is delivered with nuanced intensity.” – Wine Advocate, 96+ Points<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Grape:<\/strong> 100% Nebbiolo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17728,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"yoast_head":"\n
