We don't have to wait to deserve something. There we deserve it already. This is the bottle that each of us must be able to dedicate to himself. For all the days faced, for all the scars, for all the victories and defeats. I TOAST!

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.

Maturation on the lees for at least 60 months.

Riserva dedicated to the founder of the company Girolamo Bosio. Designed to toast the founder, with a very fine perlage, an elegant bouquet of spicy and yeasty notes, and a rich and creamy taste.

The winery

Azienda Agricola Bovio Gianfranco – Winery in Piemonte (Langhe, La Morra / Castiglione Falletto)

Discover the story and wines of Azienda Agricola Bovio Gianfranco.

Family-run winery in La Morra (Piedmont) producing Barolo and other typical wines of the Langhe, showcasing the estate’s individual crus through parcel-by-parcel vinification and traditional methods.
Region: Piemonte (Langhe, La Morra / Castiglione Falletto)
Country: Italia
Founded: 1976
Grapes: Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto, Chardonnay
Family-owned winery operating for multiple generations. Vineyards distributed across the historic crus of La Morra and Castiglione Falletto. Portfolio featuring various Barolo labels as well as Nebbiolo Langhe, Barbera and Dolcetto. Emphasis on parcel-based vinification and traditional methods. Renovated tasting room and wine shop open to the public.
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.
