Caretto Loris Livio

This family-run estate has championed the finest local products for generations, with an active farm dating back to the 1800s. The winemaking focuses on DOCG Erbaluce di Caluso, offered in the classic style, in the Oro version made from riper grapes, as the delightful Passito di Caluso and as an excellent Metodo Classico sparkling wine aged for over 60 months on the lees. There’s also a rosé and a red, also in an Oro selection.

Alongside the wines, the estate produces a vermouth crafted in collaboration with Roletti and Pitti – also Maestri del Gusto – and cultivates ancient Piedmontese maize varieties such as Pignoletto Rosso, Nostrano dell’Isola, and Stringa Bianco, milled into stone-ground flours and turned into delicious gallette (corn cakes). Today led by Loris and Roberta Caretto, the business complements production with wine tourism and an educational farm, offering vineyard and winery visits while keeping alive the bond between tradition, quality and the culture of the Canavese.
