Gyártó: Bovio
Drink now through to 2036. Decant 1 hour before serving. Best known for his famous Belvedere restaurant in Piemonte, Gianfranco Bovio’s second great passion was the estate owned by his father in La Morra. By the 1970s the estate had dwindled to a mere three hectares planted with Nebbiolo and Dolcetto. Gianfranco threw himself into the demanding project of revitalising the property, adding seven more hectares of prime vineyards on the slopes of Arborina, Gattera, and Rocchettevino. The estate is now in the capable hands of Alessandra and her husband, Marco Boschiazzo, the third generation of Bovios to run the property. Winemaking is artisanal and traditional with a preference for long maturation in large Slavonian oak casks which produces tiny quantities of elegant and earthy Barolos. Their Gattera Barolo is make with 100% estate fruit grown on prime calcareous soils. In the winery the grapes are fermented in stainless steel with up to 40 days maceration on the skins. The young wine is then aged in Slavonian oak for 24 months followed by 6 months in concrete tanks and another 6 months in the bottle. Full bodied yet balanced by refreshing acidity, this is a very ageworthy Barolo which will respond well to at least another decade in the cellar.
