Langhe Nebbiolo “Perucca” D.O.C
The second Nebbiolo of the family, ‘La Perucca,’ is a historic vineyard of the estate located behind the Bocchino family’s house. This plot is vinified like its big brother, Barolo, with long aging in large oak casks and a few years in the bottle. It exhibits the characteristics of the great wines of the region: floral and spicy notes. In its youth, the palate is austere and sharp. It evolves and becomes more complex over time, giving rise to a wine of great depth and elegance.

WINEMAKERS / PRODUCERS
Azienda Agricola Eugenio Bocchino
Barolo is the land of great red wines in Italy, where some of the most prestigious wines in the world are produced. These lands, coveted for about twenty years, have seen their fame increase, benefiting both the appellation and Italian wine, but perhaps to the detriment of tradition and the typicality of the place. Amidst the thousands of cellars, I discovered Eugenio’s. He has a very simple creed: “intervene as little as possible to faithfully transcribe the terroir.” Eugenio and his wife, Cinzia, took over Eugenio’s grandfather’s 5.5 hectares of vineyards in 1997 with the goal of producing a healthy wine faithful to the “Langhe” territory. To achieve this, they practice organic and biodynamic farming. They are also part of the “Renaissance des appellations” association founded by Nicolas Joly and Stefano Bellotti.
