Monserito Gavi of the Comune di Gavi

Tenuta Carretta is a winery that can look back on a long history. But above all, it is a winery where people pursue one goal together: to produce high-quality wines. The winery is located in the southern Piedmont, in Piobesi d'Alba in Roero. The vineyards cover approx. 80 hectares and are located in the Langhe-Roero and Monferrato wine-growing regions, which are part of the UNESCO World Heritage. The name Carretta can probably be traced back to an Albanian noblewoman who lived in the area in the 14th century and who was probably the 1st owner of the estate. However, the actual history of the winery begins in 1467, when a kind of lease agreement was concluded for the purpose of viticulture on the estate's land.
