help Ceretto FAQ
When was the Ceretto winery established?
The Ceretto family established their prominent wine estate in Piedmont, Italy, in 1937. Over the decades, they have grown into one of the most recognizable and respected names in the Langhe region.
What is Ceretto's approach to Barolo production?
Ceretto is renowned for championing single-vineyard cru Barolo bottlings rather than blending grapes from multiple sites. They believe that highlighting specific terroirs, such as their iconic Bricco Rocche, produces wines of much greater elegance and character.
What visually distinctive architecture is found at Ceretto?
The Ceretto estate features striking modern architecture, most notably a glass cube tasting room perched over the Bricco Rocche winery. They also commissioned the colorful Cappella delle Barolo, painted by contemporary artist Sol LeWitt, to celebrate their connection to art.
Does Ceretto produce white wines?
While they are famous for their reds, Ceretto also produces highly regarded white wines, particularly Arneis. They were instrumental in reviving the Arneis grape in the Roero region during the 1970s, helping save it from near extinction.
