Producer Information
The Giovanni Battista Burlotto estate, located northwest of the Barolo vineyard, in Verduno, is a traditional family business in Piedmont. Founded in 1850 by Ignazio Burlotto, the estate then passed into the hands of his nephew, Giovanni Battista Burlotto, who for almost 77 years worked to ensure the quality and reputation of his wines. From the end of the 19th century, the estate acquired a solid international reputation. Giovanni Battista Burlotto died in 1927 and, after a few years of slumber, Fabio Alessandria, great-grandson of the founder, raised the estate to its highest level. The vineyard covers 12 hectares, half of which is planted with Nebbiolo, the other varieties grown are Barbera, Dolcetto, Pelaverga, Sauvignon and Freisa. In the vineyards, the work is classic and well done, the rows are grassed and little plowed, the replacement of plants is carried out in mass selection. In the winery, too, the work is traditional, with destemming, treading, fermentation with native yeasts in old, open, tapered wooden tuns; the macerations are long (up to two months); the wines are neither filtered nor fined. One of the reference areas of the region, a safe bet.
