Description

Ceretto's Barolo 'Bricco Rocche' is a wine of great complexity and aristocratic elegance, born in the highest vineyard in the town of Castiglione Falletto and aged for 24 months in oak barrels. It expresses rich, deep aromas of jammy wild berries, red flowers, cabinetry, humus, chocolate and sweet spices. A refined freshness and a pleasant tannic texture support the long, articulate, juicy taste.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1937
  • Oenologist: Alessandro Ceretto
  • Bottles produced: 950.000
  • Hectares: 180
The Ceretto winery was founded in the 1930s: Riccardo Ceretto, who did not own any vineyards, produced wine from grapes he purchased. The turning point came when his sons Bruno and Marcello joined the business, with their innovative thinking for the time: the importance of the soil.

And so we are looking to the future: our family is a group with a shared vision, we make decisions together, guided by respect for expertise: we give those who have something to contribute - to the company, and to the territory - the tools to achieve that vision.

Everything is culture: from award-winning gastronomy at Piazza Duomo to traditional Piedmontese cuisine at La Piola, and our art projects. The Chapel by Sol Lewitt and David Tremlett, in a Barolo Brunate vineyard at La Morra, places art in an agricultural landscape, elevating and celebrating it: there is an educational element, not direction from above but contamination from below.
