Barolo Bussia Giacomo Fenocchio 2018

The Winery:

“We consider our farm an organic business although we have not been certified yet; we are participating, however, to the European project that encourages sustainable farming and we follow agricultural practices passed on for generations.

We will combine the newly purchased vineyards with those from our family heritage to craft a quality wine that best represents its territory of origin, which we aim to protect in any possible way.

What has given consistency and shaped our family farming business for generations is the respect for the work of our forefathers and the willingness to continue this tradition.” …Claudio Fenocchio
