Description
Burlotto winery is located in the center of the small town of Verduno, a cooler area in the north of Barolo production area, rich in sandy and mineral soils, famous for giving great elegance and refinement to Nebbiolo da Barolo wines. Probably the village of Verduno is not one of the most known or renowned of the Langa, it is not a place of passage! But perhaps few people know that there is a lot of history tied to this small village! It was in the cellars of the castle of the royal House of Savoy that Nebbiolo, which later became Barolo, was vinified for the first time. Another illustrious person from Verduno was Giovanni Battista Burlotto, who in 1850 founded the homonymous winery and contributed to the fame of Barolo wine. Many were the medals awarded for his Nebbiolo wines, but the winery is mainly remembered for being the only one to supply the Duke of Abruzzi in the famous Arctic expedition to the North Pole.
The story continues nowadays with the sixth generation, led by Fabio, graduated with 110 cum laude in enology, continues to make wines with the same passion and philosophy of his family. Today the winery has 15 hectares of property, 12 of which in the commune of Verduno mainly cultivated with Nebbiolo da Barolo in the renowned Monvigliero vineyard. Moreover, since the 1970’s the family owns less than one hectare in the most famous Barolo vineyard: Cannubi. In short, the Burlotto family has a historical heritage. Highly sought-after wines, but produced with the same humility and tradition as in the past.
