cesare bussolo barolo fossati 2017

"cesare bussolo, a young producer, after graduating from the alba oenological school, begins his career under the protective wing of the great roberto voerzio, where he still works. he follows the same philosophy as his master, the greatest care in the vineyard and the absolute respect for the environment, very low yields, more than 8000 strains per hectare and little interventionism in the vineyard. in 2013, from a vineyard with extraordinary potential, he produced his first barbera santa lucia... but over the years, he will finally reach his dream of producing barolo! since 2014, he is going out for the first time with barolo in the first category fossati vineyard in the municipality of la morra. the work is obviously always of high quality in the style of master roberto voerzio, collecting less than 1 kilo of grapes per plant. the refining of this wine is 24 months between barrels and barrels, plus two years of bottle. only 1400 bottles produced. a real masterpiece of wine! one of langa’s most interesting discoveries. in 2017, only 1650 bottles were produced. it was a somewhat more complicated year because of the drying season, but césar, like all the major producers, knew how to interpret the year very well. she worked a lot in the vineyard, selecting the grapes best, trying to bring home cleaner, riper grapes in the right place. the results are excellent, in the mouth, despite the hot year, intense acidity prevails. young to drink now... absolutely to keep."
