Michele Chiarlo
Nestled in the majestic region of Piedmont, the Michele Chiarlo winery represents a perfect fusion of classic elegance and a modern approach to winemaking. Founded with the intent to enhance the peculiarities of the cru of Barolo and other local denominations, this winery is a true homage to the Piedmontese territory.
The history of Michele Chiarlo intertwines with that of the hills of Langhe, Monferrato, and Gavi, places where each vine tells an ancient story of effort and passion. Here, the Nebbiolo, Barbera, and Moscato grapes find their ideal habitat, growing lush and giving life to wines that are true ambassadors of Piedmontese winemaking tradition. The Barolo Cerequio is the flagship of Chiarlo's production, a wine that represents a unique sensory experience, with its imposing structure and complex aromas evoking notes of cherry, spices, and a hint of licorice.
The winery's production philosophy is based on an almost reverential respect for the territory and its traditions, while not forgoing a look towards the future, adopting modern techniques that enhance the quality and expressiveness of the wines. Each bottle of Michele Chiarlo is a journey into the aromas and flavors of Piedmont, an invitation to discover the richness of a generous land and to be captivated by its authenticity.

THE WINE
The Barbaresco 'Faset' by Michele Chiarlo fully reflects the great typicality of the territory, offering a smooth and refined sip, the result of 18 months aging in large oak barrels. The Faset cru is prestigious, characterized by vineyards arranged in a “bowl” shape and distinguished by soils rich in calcium and magnesium, which yield smooth and elegant tannic structures in the wines. Thanks to its energetic and gentle character at the same time, it is a Barbaresco of great satisfaction to choose for the most formal occasions.
The company Michele Chiarlo was founded in 1956 by Michele Chiarlo in Calamandrana, in the heart of the Asti region, producing its first vintage of Barolo in 1958. In the following years, the winery, run strictly by the family, developed significantly, thanks to important acquisitions made in the best areas of the Langhe, securing land in Cerequio and Cannubi in 1987 and 1989. Today, the company spans about 110 hectares of vineyards, of which 60 are owned and the remaining 50 are under long-term lease agreements, producing a little over a million bottles. The management is entrusted to Michele's sons, Alberto and Stefano: the former is responsible for commercial development, while the latter is the winemaker. In the vineyards, only native grape varieties are cultivated, focusing on nebbiolo, barbera, cortese, and moscato; in the winery, the philosophy aims to enhance the characteristics that distinguish the grape variety contextualized in a specific terroir, seeking to use wood moderately for red wines, aging the various crus according to traditional methods, in large barrels or tonneaux. A fundamental goal pursued by Michele Chiarlo is sustainability, a concept dear to the family since the 1990s, when the first applications of integrated pest management, selective pesticides, and other natural practices began. A virtuous path that renews over time: in 2007, in fact, a project was started, recognized by the Ministry of the Environment, aimed at the total sustainability of the supply chain, all the way to the consumers' table. The Chiarlo family are dynamic people, attentive to modern times, as evidenced by the ambitious hospitality project inaugurated with the “Palais Cerequio,” an ideal accommodation for those who want to enjoy a few days of rest in a world where wine is the absolute protagonist. A total of about twenty excellent labels, from Barolo to Barbaresco, from Gavi to Barbera: bottles that, sip after sip and harvest after harvest, confirm their place among the best Italian wines.
