Story

Brief maceration on the skins during the harvest, separation of the grapes from the stem and delicate pressing , separation of the juice from the skins in a low pressure pneumatic press, static decantation of the must; cold fermentation of the Monterosso grape must for 15-20 days in steel tanks at a controlled temperature, until the sugars have completely run out; bottling takes place at the end of winter with the addition of must for the second fermentation in the bottle.

Producer

Beautiful and unglamorous, Colli Piacentini is an almost forgotten corner of Northern Italy. Like the land where they are from, Bulli’s wines are as they were stuck in a time warp. There is something ancestral in their direct drinking feel, they are simple but in a serious way. Spontaneous fermentations and no added sulphites not to follow a fashion, but because that is what they always did here. Nothing has changed since they started in mid-19th Century, even the labels are pretty much the same. Now the winery is run by Leonardo Bulli, but it’s pretty clear that the real boss is mother, the energetic Signora Luciana. The grapes? Bonarda, Barbera, Ortrugo and Uva Sampagnina (AKA Marsanne) and many more -they like mixing here!-, and the style? Except the Gutturnio Superiore, they are all 'frizzante' or Pet-Nat/bottle fermented.
