History and Terroir

Located in the medieval village of Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of the Barolo region, the Vietti winery was founded in the late 1800’s by Carlo Vietti. The estate has gradually grown over the course of time, and today the estate vineyards include some of the most highly prized terroirs within Piemonte’s finest winegrowing areas. Over four generations the Vietti-Currado family has contributed with their work and vision to the success and growth of the Vietti brand, today universally recognized as one of the very finest Italian wine labels. Vietti has always followed along the path of the pursuit of quality, respect of tradition combined with considered experimentation and innovation. The focus lies on producing wines that are the result of the understanding of the individual terroir as the origin of wines of unique and extraordinary quality and the artisanal, non-invasive working philosophy in the vineyards and cellar. In 2016 the winery was acquired by the Krause Family. This has enabled Vietti to add several prized Cru vineyards in the area to the estate’s holdings and, as a result, to look to a future with even more promising and stimulating prospect. All this while maintaining the approach, culture, and values for which Vietti has always been known.

Farming and Winemaking

Aside from their world-famous, single-vineyard Barolo wines, Vietti is also known for their expansive range of red and white wines. The estate currently cultivates and produces wines from Arneis, Moscato d’Asti, Dolcetto, Barbera, and Nebbiolo, the last of which provides the backbone for one Barbaresco and six powerhouse, single-vineyard Barolos. The majority of Vietti’s fruit comes from organically-farmed vines rooted in the sandy and chalky-clay soils of Castiglione Falletto. These savory, food-friendly wines are as innovative as the hands that make them and fully embody the unique rusticity of northern Italy.
