In the archives of Piedmont wine history, some wineries are carved in stone, difficult beginnings and pasts but with a glorious epilogue. Aldo Conterno is one of those leading names in Langa…one of those that made Barolo history, a family of high rank that you place as a reference for the innate quality it has always demonstrated. The winery was born in Monforte d’Alba in the hamlet of Bussia thanks to Aldo, brother of the famous Giacomo Conterno, always attracted to the world of wine as well as helping his father Giovanni during the grape harvests, he decided it was time to grow and cultivate his passion outside the borders. After a long winemaking experience in California from an old uncle, he decided to return home ti start making wines in the family’s historic estate, despite this Aldo was ambitious and had his own idea of wine… that was how he bought the Favot Estate in 1969. A succession of successes with the purchase of excellent vineyards over the years totaling 25 hectares in some of the most historic areas such as Romirasco, Cicala and Colonnello always considered the best in the Bussia vineyard. A traditional philosophy in the works where the yields are low allowing them to produce 90000 bottles annually without compromises other than making high quality wines including Bussiador, a great Chardonnay vinified in wood that has become a symbolic wine as one of the first international whites produced from a land like the Langhe, and GranBussia that is a Barolo produced in the spectacular vintages assembling the best of the 3 main vineyards. A style in the respect of Nebbiolo and its land of origin carried on today by the new generation with the same quality standard, long macerations and the use of mainly small barrels in aging to obtain a Barolo always full-bodied, with dusty and austere tannins. The Conterno family has simply become a legend! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

In a land of great reds such as Piedmont, to be able to even imagine giving life to a high level white wine on par with French ones seemed unthinkable…yet thanks to visionary producers like Aldo Conterno it was possible. As for BussiaDor, it is a Chardonnay that always comes from the Bussia vineyard among the first ones planted in the Langhe, several plots with very old vines from which low yields are obtained after careful selection. Just as the name represents the \u201cGolden\u201d version of this fantastic area, it carries out both temperature-controlled fermentation and aging in small wooden barrels for several months. It presents itself as a \u201cGranBianco\u201d with very enveloping hints of exotic fruit and vanilla, demonstrates from the start a nice body, soft, with great freshness and structure that allows it to be a wine of great longevity. A supreme product to drink on the most intriguing occasions!<\/p>\n
