I nuovi vini di Ceste sono una delle novit\u00e0 pi\u00f9 interessanti nel panorama PIWI. Anni di impegno e investimenti di questa cantina di Govone (CN) hanno permesso di raggiungere il traguardo della messa in commercio di una linea di 4 vini PIWI.

      \u201cPIWI is not a rejection of tradition. It is a way to protect it.\u201d


      \n\u201cWhen PIWI wines start winning blind tastings, they enter the real wine world.\u201d

      \u201cThese awards mark a turning point for PIWI Piemonte.\u201d

      Q1| What is PIWI?<\/b><\/p>

      \u00a0PIWI comes from the German term Pilzwiderstandsf\u00e4hige Rebsorten, meaning fungus-resistant grape varieties. They allow a drastic reduction in chemical treatments in the vineyard and are considered the best concrete responses to climate change and sustainable viticulture.\u00a0<\/p>

      Key words: Sustainable viticulture \u00b7 Resistant varieties \u00b7 Climate adaptation\u00a0<\/p>

      Q2 | \u201cWhat is the biggest advantage of PIWI?\u201d<\/b><\/p>

      \u00a0\u201cNot marketing \u2014 agriculture. Less intervention, healthier vineyards, and more stable harvests. These are very concrete advantages for the future of wine.Water saving and less use of tractors\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

      Q3| Why does PIWI matter in Piedmont?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

      Piedmont is one of the world\u2019s most traditional fine-wine regions, but it is also facing increasing climate pressure, disease risks, and environmental regulations. PIWI offers a realistic solution: maintaining quality, territorial expression, and economic sustainability, while significantly reducing environmental impact. PIWI is not an alternative to tradition \u2014 it is a tool to protect the future of tradition.\u00a0<\/p>

      Q4 | \u201cDoes PIWI threaten traditional Piedmont grape varieties?\u201d\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

      \u201cPIWI is not here to replace Nebbiolo or Barbera. It is here to help protect Piedmont\u2019s wine culture under new climate and environmental conditions. It is a tool, not a rival.\u201d<\/p>

      \u00a0Q5 | \u201cIs your goal environmental, or is it commercial?\u201d\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

      \u201cWithout a market, sustainability cannot survive. Without sustainability, the market has no future. PIWI connects these two dimensions.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

      Q6\uff5c \u201cCan PIWI wines really compare in quality with traditional wines?\u201d<\/b><\/p>

      \u00a0\u201cIf you had asked me five years ago, I would have said this was our goal. Today, after receiving gold and silver medals and bronze from an institution like FEM, I can say this is already a reality. Today, the answer is in the glass. PIWI is no longer only an agricultural project. It has become a complete wine project: vineyards,2 winemaking, identity, and market positioning \u2014 now also supported by professional blind tastings. Quality remains the only real criterion.\u00a0<\/p>

      Q7| Why are these awards important?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

      The evaluation at Fondazione Edmund Mach, one of Europe\u2019s most respected research and technical institutions, represents a clear professional validation of PIWI wine quality. These medals signal a shift: PIWI wines are moving from an experimental phase into the professional quality arena.\u00a0<\/p>

      Q8| Will consumers accept PIWI wines?<\/b><\/p>

      \u00a0\u201cConsumers don\u2019t reject new grape varieties. They reject bad wine. If a wine is good, authentic, and meaningful, the grape variety is not the issue, but the taste, values, and stories. When PIWI wines combine: sensory quality environmental credibility and strong regional identity they naturally find their place in international markets.”<\/p>

      \u00a0Q9| What is PIWI Piemonte?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

      PIWI Piemonte is a regional initiative bringing together growers, winemakers, and technical partners to: -develop resistant varieties adapted to Piedmont -build a quality-oriented PIWI wine model -position PIWI as a credible part of Piedmont\u2019s future\u00a0<\/p>

      Q10| | \u201cWhat are the next steps for PIWI Piemonte?\u201d<\/b><\/p>

      \u00a0\u201cExpanding vineyards, strengthening cooperation with research institutions, building a clearer regional identity, and positioning PIWI as part of Piedmont\u2019s future, not as a niche.\u201d -clearer international communication -development of export markets -From a niche experiment to a regional solution<\/p>

      \u00a0Q11 | \u201cWhy did Cantina Ceste start working with PIWI so early?\u201d<\/b><\/p>

      \u00a0\u201cBecause I realized very early that continuing in exactly the same way would become more and more difficult. I didn\u2019t want to wait until change was forced on us. I chose to start learning 15 years earlier. Cantina Ceste was the first winery in Piedmont to invest in PIWI viticulture. Over more than a decade, the winery has worked on vineyard trials, winemaking approaches, and market integration. These awards represent a key milestone in a long-term vision.<\/p>
