Azienda Agricola Cieck

– Canavese

North of Torino and south of the Val d’Aosta there’s a tiny (200ha) DOCG for a rare white grape variety… Erbaluce. Azienda Agricola Cieck with 13ha, almost all of it Erbaluce are one of the principle and without doubt one of the best producers here. That Erbaluce isn’t on everyone’s radar goes without saying but enjoying modest altitude, mineral rich morainic soils, abundant crystalline sunlight and having characteristics more than just a little in common with Chenin Blanc, the question has to be ‘why not?’!
