Descrizione

The grapes are subjected to a soft pressing, to obtain the separation of the must which will then be fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. While the sparkling base is aged for 6-7 months. Last maturation on the lees for at least 30 months which in this way make it a very complex and full-bodied bubble.

Vintage with an intense straw yellow colour. It shows itself in all its splendor given the importance of the bubble in spicy notes and tropical fruit.

It offers one of the most complex gustatory experiences and among the best excellences of the Franciacorta area.

On the sip it offers an important structure, with savory and mineral notes and a long citrus finish that certainly makes you appreciate the drink.

Winery history

The Bovio family has been in La Morra for generations. In the 1950s and 1960s Alessandro Bovio farmed grapes on a small scale. In the 1970s Gianfranco renovated the winery, and in the following years the estate began selling Nebbiolo and Barolo. Since then the estate has expanded and modernized the winery, and management has gradually passed to the next generations.

Production philosophy

The winemaking approach is founded on respect for tradition and the land: each vineyard is vinified separately to express the characteristics of the individual cru, with artisanal care in the vineyard and cellar and aging in large casks where appropriate. Attention is focused on patience, precise management of the parcels and fidelity to the character of the Langhe.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards located in La Morra and partly in Castiglione Falletto, with estate crus designated as Annunziata, Rocchettevino, Parussi, Gattera and Arborina. The estate reports approximately ten hectares of vineyards distributed across the principal MGAs of the Langhe, with vinifications carried out separately by parcel.

Awards and recognitions

Bovio's wines have received high ratings from international critics: in particular, their Barolo expressions have earned high scores from James Suckling, Robert Parker and Wine Spectator across several vintages.
