Attilio Ghisolfi, Langhe, Piedmont, Italy
The passion for wine has lived in the Ghisolfi family in Piedmont for 4 generations. Son Gianmarco Ghisolfi saw the potential of their vineyards and decided to start bottling under his own name, Attilio Ghisolfi, in 1988. The focus is on the Piedmontese grape varieties Nebbiolo and Barbera.
Barolo and Barbera from the Langhe
Ghisolfi is known for their Barolo from the Bussia vineyard — one of the most renowned crus in the Langhe. But their Barbera d’Alba is also a gem: dark, powerful, and noble, aged for 12 months in oak barriques.
