The Legacy of Ceretto Estate: A Journey Through Time
Founding and Growth of the Ceretto Estate
It all began in 1930 for this estate, which was then run by Riccardo Ceretto. Originally, Riccardo did not own any vines and bought the grapes to produce his wine. It was a time when buying land and developing a vineyard was not the norm. Then with the arrival of Riccardo's two sons, Bruno and Marcello, the Ceretto estate took a turn. In the 1960s, the two sons began to list and map the vineyards of the region and then gradually bought parcels of land. From the 1970s to the 1990s, the estate continued to grow, both in terms of the area under vine and the construction of several wine-making cellars.
Innovative Practices Inspired by Tradition
Recognising the work undertaken for centuries in Burgundy, the two brothers decided to apply the same process to the management of their vineyard, focusing on developing crus and exploring terroir potential. Today, this estate remains family-owned as Bruno and Marcello have been joined by their children; it is resolutely turned towards future innovations while honoring its rich heritage. Experience, transmission, passion, and respect for tradition make this estate a sure bet in Piedmont.
