BAROLODOCG BRICCO ROCCHE Bricco Rocche, located in Castiglione Falletto, is one of the most spectacular sites for growing Nebbiolo grapes in the Barolo DOCG zone. This perfectly exposed vineyard site is a monopole of the Ceretto family. While “bricco” refers to the “top of the hill” and is usually where the best exposures are found, “rocche” refers to the cliffs surrounding the vineyard. Grapes are transported immediately to the winery, which sits directly above the vines at the summit of the hill. The final sorting is done by hand before the fruit goes to press. Only native yeasts are used during fermentation, which takes place in stainless steel. After malolactic conversion, the wine is left to refine for 12 months in small oak barrels of just under 300L capacity. It is then moved to large oak casks of at least 25HL for the remainder of its elevage.

MOSCATOD’ASTI DOCG This Moscato d’Asti gets its characteristic effervescence through a second, temperature- controlled fermentation in tank, which is stopped when the wine reaches 5% alcohol. The Moscato Bianco grapes used for this wine are all harvested by hand from the Santo Stefano Belbo, Canelli, and Calosso areas.
