From this winery
  • Start up year: 1971
  • Oenologist: Marco Parusso
  • Bottles produced: 125.000
  • Hectares: 26
Cantina Parusso is located between the villages of Castiglione Falletto and Monforte d’Alba, in the hamlet of “Bussia”, on a hill called Bricco Rovella: 20 hectares of vineyards nestle in Località Bussia, Ornati, Mosconi, Le Coste, Mariondino and Villero.
The love for the vineyard dates back four generations and the one single aim of Parusso Family is to produce great wines prized for delicacy and elegance.
The pursuit of a unique and premium character is the result of caring devotion to work in the various vineyards. A further expression of this philosophy is based on the diversity of the viticulture, where art and science meet to produce wines of great character in perfect harmony with the terroir.
The Barolo Bussia, Barolo Mariondino, Barolo, as well as Barbera d’Alba Superiore and Bricco Rovella Bianco are vintage wines, made from a careful selection of the oldest vines.
Barbera d’Alba Ornati, Dolcetto d’Alba Piani Noce, Nebbiolo Langhe and Langhe Bianco are wines characterised by a more everyday style in which the fragrance and freshness of fruit exalt their personality.
