Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or an adventurous beginner, these wines bring the vibes through the renowned regions of Barolo and Piedmont.
Cesare Bussolo: The Rising Star of Piedmont
Cesare Bussolo, a prominent figure in Piedmont, has been crafting outstanding wines since 2007 when he worked with Roberto Voerzio. After honing his skills under Voerzio's mentorship, Bussolo began creating his own wines, which have quickly gained acclaim. His production is deliberately limited, with cru bottles averaging only 200 cases and the La Morra Barolo yielding just 280 cases per year, making each bottle a rare and exclusive find!
Featured Cesare Bussolo Wines:
- Barolo La Morra - This wine is celebrated for its delicate, feminine style and ethereal texture, akin to Burgundy wines. Its intoxicating aromatics and intricate finish highlight the distinct terroir of its vineyards.
- Cru Wines - Bussolo’s Cru wines are crafted for both immediate enjoyment and long-term aging, showcasing the unique characteristics of their respective vineyards.
Gaja: Iconic Italian Winemaking
Gaja, a name synonymous with Italian wine excellence, continues to be a benchmark for quality and tradition. With a history dating back to 1859, Gaja's wines are known for their rarity and exceptional quality.
Featured Gaja Wines:
- Gaja Ca'Marcanda 'Promis' Super Tuscan 2022 - This blend of Merlot, Syrah, and Sangiovese offers floral aromas, fresh fruit flavours, and a savoury finish. It is noted for its approachability and complex profile.
