Fausto and Cinzia Cellario are 3rd generation winemakers in the village of Carrù on the western outskirts of the Langhe. The family believes in only working with local, indigenous Piemontese grape varietals and fiercely defends local winemaking traditions both in the vineyard work and the cellar practices. The Cellario vineyard holdings cover 30hA between 5 different vineyard sites covering the southern Langhe. Vineyard work is organic and all the fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts. Sulfur is only added in tiny quantities at bottling if necessary.
