Barolo DOCG 'Bussia' 2015 (750 ml.) - Marco Bonfante
Barolo 'Bussia' by Marco Bonfante is the result of selecting the best grapes from the vineyard on the Bussia hill, on the border between Barolo and Monforte d'Alba. Bussia is undoubtedly one of the most prestigious crus in the Barolo area, with its particular terroir which gives power and complexity to the resulting wine. This wine fascinates with its elegance and complexity, with spicy and velvety aromas that envelop the nose and palate leaving a long tasting persistence. Fine but intense, with hints of violet, spices and rust. Dry, warm, full-bodied and harmonious, noble and elegant tannins. Bussia is a wine particularly suitable for aging: it can be tasted even after 25 years.

Bonfante family has been producing wines in Nizza Monferrato (AT), Piedmont, for eight generations, in an area that represents the area of excellence for the production of Barbera d'Asti and which in 2014 obtained the "Nizza DOCG" denomination. It is a family-run business. The owner Marco Bonfante, graduated from the Oenology school of Alba, is an oenologist and deals with all-round production and company management. He is assisted by the oenologist consultant Gianluca Scaglione, the agronomist Daniele Eberle and his sister Micaela Bonfante who takes care of the administrative management and logistical organisation. The company offers an image of quality and seriousness, thanks to hard work, in Italy and especially abroad. A few harvests were enough for it to become a highly representative reality of this territory. In fact, the best grapes from other areas of the region are added to the Nizza Monferrato plants, which contribute to a rich and versatile range representative of the most prestigious denominations of southern Piedmont. The grapes produced come from managed vineyards and from selected vineyards, thanks to an intense and flourishing "nègoce" activity. All cultivation operations are followed by the company agronomist until harvesting. Thinning (also called green harvest) is carried out in the vineyard in order to reduce the production of the plant and improve the quality of the grapes.
