PIEDMONT - RED
LA SPINETTA
Spinetta is winery located in the rolling hills of Piedmont in North-West
Italy, owned by an innovative winemaker Giorgio Rivetti. La Spinetta
literally means “Top of the Hill” and refers to the location of the family’s first
winery in Asti, Piedmont. Despite their modern approach to winemaking,
they focus on the native grape varieties of Barbera and Nebbiolo. Their
Barolo and Barbaresco, which are made from 100% Nebbiolo, are made
in a very modern style that are ripe, fruity and approachable with aromas
of sweet cherries, herbs and oak.

VIETTI
The Vietti family has been producing wine in Barolo for four generations
and was one of the first to vinify grapes from single vineyards in the
1950s. At the time this was unheard of but is now almost standard
practice in much of the region. With distinguishing labels designed each
year by artists, Vietti produce some of the best examples of Barolo. The
estate was purchased in 2015 by the Krause family from the US.

CERETTO
One of the most progressive wine makers based in the heart of Piedmont.
The Ceretto name is synonymous with estate-grown, carefully produced
wines that express true varietal character with purity and elegance. They
early developed the concept of single vineyards, especially in Barolo where
their Bricco Rocche is the top wine. They also produce a lovely crisp and
fragrant white of the grape Arneis called Blange. Recently Ceretto has
been increasing their biodynamic cultivation although they are not part
of any certification.
