Vietti

Located in the heart of the Langhe hills, at the top of the village of Castiglione Falletto, the Vietti winery was founded at the end of the 1800s by Carlo Vietti. The estate has gradually grown over time and today the vineyards include some of the finest terroirs within the Barolo and Barbaresco production areas. While producing wine for four generations, the turning point came at the end of the 1950s when Luciana Vietti married the oenologist and art connoisseur Alfredo Currado, whose intuitions – from the production of one of the first Barolo crus (1961 – Rocche di Castiglione ), passing through the single-variety vinification of Arneis (1967) up to the invention of the Artist’s Labels (1974) – made it the symbol and architect of some of the most significant revolutions of the time. Alfredo’s intellectual, professional and prospective legacy was carried on by his son-in-law Mario Cordero and later, in the early 1990s, by his son Luca Currado Vietti and his wife Elena Penna, who contributed to the success of the Vietti brand – universally recognized today as one of the Italian winemaking excellences – continuing on the path of quality research, considered as experimentation and working for the expansion and consolidation at an international level. In 2016 the winery was acquired by the Krause family, allowing Vietti to add a number of fine crus of Barolo and Barbaresco to the estate’s holdings. Additional vineyards in the Colli Tortonesi area have been purchased for the production of Timorasso, which began with the 2019 harvest. As in the past, Vietti continues to maintain the same founding values ​​that Carlo Vietti established at the outset: the pursuit of quality and experimentation weighted. Vietti looks to the future with even more promising and stimulating prospects. Each wine is the result of an artisanal work in the vineyard and in the cellar and of the deep understanding and interpretation of each single terroir. Vietti is a place where the intelligence of the hands, applied in the vineyard and in the cellar, meets a continuous vision.
