Wineries of January 20010

Icardi Winery:

was founded in 1914. The Icardi family style is characterized by elegance and grace more than power and over-extraction. This translates into the utmost respect for the wines which are never placed under stress. Respect of the Terroir is the key here.

Dante Rivetti Winery:

The roots of four generations of the Rivetti family run deep into the hills which overlook Neive from Bricco. Towards the end of the 19th century, Giuseppe Rivetti "Pinin", head of the family nicknamed "Valletta", bought three estates to share between his children. A century later, in the mid 1979's, his grandson Dante began personally running them, bottling and selling the wines produced under his own name and now cultivates 42 hectares of vineyards.

Pelissero Winery:

Giorgio and Christina Pelissero make 10 superb wines. From Barberas to Barbarescos, the aim is quality, quality, quality. Their style is distinct in a very velvety way; their Barbarescos are deep and profound. A treat.
 

Casetta Winery:

The winery is located in Vezza d’Alba, at the heart of the Roero area, a region with the finest wine-making history where excellent red and white wines have always been produced. The Casetta family has been living here since 1725. Vine-growing and wine-making are age-old family traditions. The Estate of 120 acres is located in the Langa and Roero regions, many in prime south-facing areas at altitude ranging between 200 to 400 metres.
