Good To Know: Domaine Vietti, founded in 1873 by Carlo Vietti in Castiglione Falletto at the heart of Barolo, is one of Piedmont’s most respected wineries. Over generations, especially under the influence of Alfredo Currado in the mid-20th century, Vietti pioneered single-vineyard Barolo and helped revive the nearly extinct Arneis grape. The estate is also known for its Artist Labels, first introduced in 1974, which blend wine and contemporary art. Today, Vietti cultivates over 75 hectares of certified-organic vineyards across Barolo, Barbaresco, Roero, and Colli Tortonesi, crafting terroir-driven wines with a blend of traditional and modern techniques. Since its acquisition by the Krause family in 2016, the estate has expanded its holdings while retaining its commitment to heritage, with Luca Currado and Mario Cordero continuing to shape its winemaking direction. From its gravity-fed cellar beneath a medieval tower to its expression of MGA crus, Vietti remains a benchmark for Barolo and beyond
