Vignaioli di Santo Stefano
With an almost metaphorical return to their origins, in 1976 the Ceretto brothers
- together with two partners (Sergio Santi and the brothers Gianpiero and Andrea
Scavino) - founded I Vignaioli di Santo Stefano in the village where their father,
Riccardo, was born.
The farm works 20 acres of its own land, as well as the San Maurizio estate leased
from Count Carlo Vittorio Incisa Beccaria, a prestigious hillside area of approximately
80 acres in Santo Stefano Belbo.
Around 160,000 bottles of Moscato d’Asti, 20,000 of Asti, and 5,000 of
Moscato Passito are produced here on average each year.
Limited pruning, balanced manuring, thinning of the bunches, and grading of the
grapes during the harvest are the cornerstones on which the tending of the vineyards
is based, while rackings, clarifications and filtrations reduced to the absolute
minimum are the fundamental steps in the winery that guarantee to bring out the
aromatic properties of the grapes.
