Classified as a “first-class cru” by Renato Ratti in his “Mappa del Barolo” (1965), and defined as a “choice zone” by the scrupulous agronomist Lorenzo Fantini in the first monograph on winegrowing in the Cuneo area, Cerequio is without doubt one of the most prestigious Barolo vineyards.
Unlike the nearby “Brunate”, this Additional Geographic Indication
(MGA) lies on two opposite hillsides between the small towns of Barolo and La Morra and enjoys a truly exceptional microclimate that has earned it the name the “Langhe Riviera”.
The plot of land we own, located in the more south-easterly area of the MGA, in Barolo has a particularly exceptional microclimate, where the wind-sheltered position means we are able to maximise and accent the best qualities of the vineyard.
