It displays a clear garnet colour, introducing an enveloping and austere bouquet of juniper bark, rose, blackberry and cloves. On the palate, it is fresh and taut, supported by \u003cstrong\u003efirm tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e and a ferrous mineral imprint that defines an elegant texture. The persistent finish offers floral notes, making it ideal for pairing with \u003cstrong\u003ered meat dishes\u003c\/strong\u003e, game and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates from the renowned Bussia cru in Monforte d’Alba, Piedmont. The rows of vines benefit from a south-west exposure at around three hundred metres above sea level, favouring optimal ripening of the grapes. The vines grow on an \u003cstrong\u003eHelvetian soil\u003c\/strong\u003e composed of clay and limestone, particularly \u003cstrong\u003erich in iron\u003c\/strong\u003e, which gives the wine tension and minerality. The vineyard management, overseen by the family since the mid-nineteenth century, adopts \u003cstrong\u003esustainable farming practices\u003c\/strong\u003e to respect the environment and the authenticity of the local area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarvesting takes place in mid-October with controlled yields. In the cellar, the \u003cstrong\u003elong maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e technique is used, with natural fermentation by indigenous yeasts in steel tanks for about forty days. The wine initially rests for six months in steel before a slow ageing of thirty months in \u003cstrong\u003elarge Slavonian oak casks\u003c\/strong\u003e. This production process aims to preserve the freshness of the fruit and balance structure and \u003cstrong\u003earomatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensuring excellent longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced in Monforte d’Alba, the Barolo Bussia 2021 by Giacomo Fenocchio celebrates a winemaking tradition that dates back to 1850.
