From the vineyard to the table

Since 1953 The Deltetto family has produced high quality wines in the areas of Langhe and Roero. The family business is located in Canale and was established by Carlo Deltetto, who began the activity, always respecting nature and the great wine tradition of Piedmont. Since 1977, after his studies about enology, Carlo’s son Antonio (together with his wife Graziella, their son Carlo, and their daughters Cristina and Claudia), has run the business, trying to respect his father’s aim.

The production is varied, including the traditional red wines such as Roero Braja, Barolo Sistaglia, Barbera “Rocche delle Marasche” and Barbera Bramè. The white wines, like Arneis San Michele, Arneis Daivej and Favorita Sarvai are produced and have found their best habitat in the Roero area.

In the last few years The Deltetto family has had a lot of success with the Passito Bric du Liun, a top quality wine obtained from Arneis grapes, and with the production of sparkling wines through the classic method “champenoise”. This production began with the Extra Brut Millesimato and was then completed with the Brut and Rosè, wines which combine two of the most famous grapes, Nebbiolo and Pinot Nero.
