This Barberesco is made from this indigenous grape variety. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand in October. Fermentation takes place in the Batasiolo cellar, lasting approximately ten days.

Here, they are pressed and gently descaled to preserve only the finest aromas from the skins and outer part of the grape. Fermentation takes place in thermo-conditioned tanks at a controlled temperature. Skin maceration lasts ten days, with the fermenting juice regularly recycled from the bottom to the top of the tank to gently integrate the tannins and achieve the desired color. Once fermentation is complete, the grape's natural sugars are completely converted into alcohol. The wine is then racked in cement tanks lined with fiberglass and insulated with cork, where it rests at a post-fermentation temperature of approximately twenty-two degrees Celsius. This temperature triggers a natural process called malolactic fermentation, which transforms the harsh malic acid into a softer lactic acid, a process that takes approximately two months. The wine is aged for two years, partly in Slavonian oak barrels and partly in small, moderately toasted French oak barrels.

An unforgettable wine with incredibly deep flavors, made from a single vineyard named Bussia. This Cru boasts the finest characteristics, resulting in one of the finest Barolo wines. This is also partly due to the winery's long history. In 1904, Giacomo Oddero and Alfredo Prunotto founded the winery as a cooperative. It was called Cantina Sociale \"Ai Vini delle Langhe,\" but the company's history was short. Due to many negative factors during this time, the winery closed, but Alfredo Prunotto didn't let that happen. A few years later, he purchased the winery and continued under his own name. This proved to be a resounding success, as the wines are now renowned worldwide. Today, none other than the Antinori family has taken over the winery following Alfredo Prunotto's retirement. This further improved the quality of the wines and they are now sold all over the world.\n\n\n\n \u003ch2\u003eThe old Bussia vineyard of Prunotto\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n This red Barolo from Prunotto is made from a single vineyard called Bussia. Barolo Bussia DOCG comes from the beautiful amphitheater-shaped vineyard in the Bussia Monforte d'Alba area. This historic wine was first produced by Prunotto as a single-vineyard wine in 1961. The balance and complexity of the Nebbiolo grapes are enhanced by the vineyard's varied south- to southwest-facing exposure and traditional aging in large barrels. The harvest is entirely hand-harvested, and each bunch is inspected during harvesting. This Bussia Barolo is then aged in oak for a full eighteen months in Prunotto's cellars. Only when the wine is perfect are the bottles sold, and that can sometimes take quite a while. Therefore, the bottles are aged in the bottle for at least another few months in Prunotto's cellars.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The best wine from Prunotto\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThis Prunotto Bussia Barolo boasts such power and suppleness. Barolo Bussia has a vibrant, brilliant ruby ​​red color with garnet highlights. The nose is complex, with floral aromas and notes of red fruit. A vigorous swirl reveals hints of spice, tobacco, cedar, and a touch of earth. An intense flavor with sweet, silky tannins leads to a long, harmonious finish.","brand":"Wijntransport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775805984847,"sku":"11474","price":78.19,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/prunotto-bussia-barolo_11474.webp?v=1770195465"},{"product_id":"marco-porello-barolo","title":"Marco Porello Barolo","description":"A true king's wine. This excellent glass of red wine deserves this nickname for good reason. Barolo was once enjoyed with relish by the kings of Europe. Fortunately, Barolo has never lost this status. Marco Porello Barolo makes an unparalleled glass of Barolo at a reasonable price. Accessible to every wine drinker, so you too can discover what a true king drinks.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e A Barolo wine from Italy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nBarolo has achieved almost iconic status within Italian winemaking. Along with Brunello and Amarone, they form a legendary trio in Italy. The Barolo region lies just south of the industrial city of Turin, in northwestern Italy. The acreage is small; only 1,200 hectares can be called Barolo. That sounds like a lot, but it's small, especially when compared to the demand for this spectacular wine.\n\n\n\n Since the 1930s, Marco Porello Winery has owned several beautiful Cru vineyards in the heart of the Barolo region. The majority are found in Cru Baudana and Cru Sorano. However, some of the Nebbiolo grapes also come from the magnificent vineyard in Sottocestello di Novello. Because the grapes from these various vineyards are expertly blended by Marco Porello's winemaker, this Barolo wine offers an exceptionally high price-quality ratio.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e What does the Marco Porello Barolo taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nWith Nebbiolo from Piedmont taking center stage, this red wine is undoubtedly fantastic. The secret of this Porello Barolo lies in its oak aging, which lasts a full 24 months in Slavonian oak. This creates a unique and intense bouquet. The aroma alone made us incredibly happy: barm, berries, and a hint of anise. Undeniably a Barolo. The flavor is powerful yet smooth. Lush spices play intensely with your taste buds. The finish of Marco Porello Barolo seems lingering. A must-have for your wine cellar.","brand":"Poot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775884955727,"sku":"12358","price":29.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/marco-porello-barolo_12358.webp?v=1770370339"},{"product_id":"nervi-conterno-il-rosato","title":"Nervi Conterno Il Rosato","description":"A beautiful rosé made from Nebbiolo grapes.

The winery was founded in 1906 by Italo Nervi. The Nervi family built the estate's reputation and ran it continuously until 1991, when a steel magnate named Germano Bocciolone purchased the estate. Twenty years later, a group of Norwegian investors led by a passionate wine collector, Erling Astrup, acquired the winery. Astrup sought to improve Nervi's quality and sought advice from his longtime friend Roberto Conterno. In 2018, the group decided to sell the winery and, wanting to ensure it was in good hands, decided it best to offer it to Roberto Conterno first.\n\n\n \nThe grapes come from Gattinara's finest vineyards: Molsino and Valferana. These vineyards lie at an altitude of 290 to 420 meters. The soils are of volcanic origin and therefore rich in minerals and clay. Once the grapes are perfectly ripe, they are harvested entirely by hand. The grapes are then destemmed in the winery and gently crushed. To achieve the desired color complexity, the skins are removed only after about eight hours. Fermentation then follows in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation takes place in concrete vats. The wine is aged for four months on the lees to acquire that extra touch of creaminess.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Ripe fruity flavors of Nervi Conterno Il Rosato\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe Rosato from Nervi Conterno has a light coral pink color in the glass. Immediately, we can savor aromas of flowers, red berries, and herbs. The palate reveals ripe nectarine, melon, and wild cherry with a hint of citrus zest and some summer herbs. These are complemented by fresh acidity and fine tannins. It is soft and well-rounded, beautifully composed, and above all, elegant. Delicious as an aperitif, with salads, or light meat dishes.","brand":"Poot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775820533839,"sku":"12445","price":27.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/nervi-conterno-il-rosato_12445.webp?v=1770370422"},{"product_id":"giacomo-fenocchio-barolo-castellero","title":"Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Castellero","description":"\u003cp\u003eFive generations of Fenocchio family have been producing wine from their estate in Monforte d'Alba since 1894.
