Poderi Luigi Einaudi – Barolo Bussia – 2019

Barolo Bussia, comes from the vineyard of the same name located in the commune of Monforte d’Alba, one of the benchmark cru in the Barolo area. This vineyard is one of the last purchases of the Einaudi family, in fact it was produced for the first time in 2015. The soils in this vineyard are rich in clay, giving the Barolos more complexity and fuller, spicier flavors. The wine matures for 24 months in medium-large oak barrels. A complex wine, dusty notes on the nose, pleasantness and roundness in the mouth with a nice tannin finish. Great evolutionary capacity.

Description

Podere Luigi Einaudi is the historic winery founded by the very first President Luigi Einaudi in the town of Dogliani. Despite his political activities in Rome, he never missed any grape harvests, and he entrusted the management of his farmsteads and vineyards to sharecroppers.
He was one of the first to bet everything on agriculture, realizing that he could lift his Piedmont home from crisis by giving local people their own jobs to manage his land. Since his death, the winery was managed by his sons and grandsons, until today with the presence of his grandson Matteo Sardagna Einaudi. The winery has made history for aiming high and bringing to the world the typical Dogliani grape: Dolcetto!
With the new generations they bought farmhouses in the Barbaresco and Barolo areas to produce the renowned and austere nebbiolo in its various appellation forms. The style in the winery is rather traditional, leaving room for some cutting-edge techniques for cleaning and winemaking the wine, such as temperature-controlled cement tanks.
