Description
This splendid vineyard, located under the town of Treiso, returning towards the Pertinace hamlet, has been considered for more than a century among the best in the municipality. It can be interpreted as the natural continuation of the Nerve, with which it shares the orientation and position of the land. The vineyard area is enclosed in a small natural amphitheater and this conformation manages to create a particular and favorable microclimate for the vine that is not affected by the considerable height (400 meters in the highest part). Ceretto works in biodynamic agriculture 4.8 hectares of this cru that year after year gives us more and more expressive wines, characterized by an incredible pleasantness and remarkable dynamism.
Estate
Among the infinite rows of vines that run across the undulating hills of Piedmont are the four wineries of Ceretto, a wine and spirits company in its third generation. Founded by Riccardo Ceretto in 1937, the highly respected firm is now run by his sons, Bruno and Marcello (dubbed the “Barolo Brothers”) who in the 1960s began raising Ceretto’s profile and expanding its holdings. Now their sons and daughters are at the helm of the Langhe DOC company, which holds a total of 120 hectares of land that are the birthplace of an array of elegant still wines, sparkling wines, dessert wines, and spirits.
