Description: | Michele Chiarlo bottled his first Barolo vintage in 1958. Back then, Michele was a recent graduate of the Oenology School of Alba, and he owned no vineyards. Michele soon realized that stringent grape quality control was the secret to making great wines, so he began leasing vineyards to ensure high quality grapes. Michele then turned his attention to purchasing the best available vineyard holdings, and he acquired plots in Barolo's Cannubi and Cerequio, as well as Asti, where some of the finest Barbera plots later were reclassified as part of the Nizza Docg. Today, the Michele Chiarlo estate spans more than 270 acres across Langhe, Monferrato, and Gavi, and it includes a boutique hotel in Cerequio. Michele passed away in 2023, and this family-owned estate is now run by Michele's sons, Alberto and Stefano, who continue their father's single-minded pursuit of growing Piemonte's finest indigenous grapes and making wines that are as honest as they are delicious. |
