Barbaresco Asili DOCG
- Description
Complex bouquet with notes of rose, violet and licorice. Well evident tannins that leave a feeling of dry mouth. The taste becomes more exciting with further aging: it is recommended to keep it for a period between 3 and 15 years .
One of the most representative climatic zones of the appellation and therefore the symbol of the city of Barbaresco, which is striking for its surprising finesse and power, its disarming elegance and longevity. The vineyard extends from the foot of the hill to the top – 200-290 meters above sea level. The vines grow on the famous marly clayey soils of S. Agata Fossili and face south / southwest. The Ceretto land is located directly on the summit and has an area of just over one hectare. The grapes from this plot have been vinified separately since the first half of the 1970s. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is stored in 25 hl wooden barrels.
ORGANIC WINE
THE HISTORY OF CERETTO IS THE HISTORY OF A FAMILY AND THE LOVE FOR A TERRITORY, THE LANGHE.
It is love that guides us in every choice: in the vineyards we cultivate, in the cellars where the wines mature, in the countryside where we live, on the jugs where on sunny winter days we go for a walk with our children.
We have been wine producers since 1930. Over the past twenty years we have embarked on a journey to make our agriculture more sustainable for the environment, which led us to obtain organic certification in 2015.
Together with Enrico Crippa, chef, we are the founding members of the Piazza Duomo restaurant, the only three Michelin stars in Piedmont.
We are patrons of the arts, nougat producers, storytellers, wine sellers.
We are animated by an eclectic curiosity that knows no boundaries, but there is always a method in our madness: everything is in the name of the Langhe.
