Crowning the hilltop village of Castiglione Falletto with cellars in the steep hillside below, Vietti was founded by Carlo Vietti in the late 1800s and have been bottling Barolo since 1873. The 1960s became a turning point, when Luciana Vietti married winemaker and art connoisseur Alfredo Currado – who brought the idea of bottling single vineyard Barolo and introducing art labels on the bottles. Today, Luca Vietti, son of Luciana and Alfredo, runs the estate, cultivating fifteen different vineyards across the region. These vineyards deliver material for a fabulous range of wines from the value Perbacco Langhe Nebbiolo right through to five single vineyard wines, of which we list three - Rocche di Castiglione (in Castiglione Falletto), Ravera (in Barolo), and Brunate (in La Morra). Vietti’s Barolo Brunate is derived from the eponymous vineyard plot, in the village of La Morra, which is south-facing at 300-400 meters of altitude. The soil is calcareous clay. The wine is a 2007 vintage, a 75cl bottle, and suitable for both men and women.
The Vietti Brunate Barolo 2007 is a perfect fit for those seeking to enjoy an exceptional 2007 vintage Barolo, known for its age-worthy and velvety mouthfeel.
