Winery
The Ceretto winery was born in the 1930's: Riccardo Ceretto, who did not own any vineyards, made wine by buying grapes from others. The turning point coincided with the entrance in the company of his sons Bruno and Marcello, who brought with them an innovative thought for those times: the importance of the land. In the 1960's Bruno and Marcello began to map out the lands from which the best wines came, and to buy vineyards in the most vocated positions in Langhe and Roero, including some of the best Barolo and Barbaresco crus. They would never leave the land again.
Description
Blangè wine, son of a strongly characterizing territory, the Roero. It is the white side of Ceretto winery's Piedmontese wines. Blangè, obtained from Arneis grapes, is a product that marked an era, revolutionizing the enology of the Langhe region, which until then had been dedicated exclusively to the valorization of red grape varieties. Fruit and minerality, fragrance and calibrated freshness, coexist in a white wine which has made of enjoyability and transversality its trademark.
