About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The tanaceto (tansy) flowers used to flavour the wine grow wild in La Morra.

Vinification

The base is Barolo that has not fully fermented, so it keeps some natural sweetness. Fermentation is stopped by adding a small amount of wine spirit, which gives a lightly sweet, aromatic wine of slightly higher alcohol. The wine is then infused with tanaceto flowers.

Tasting profile

Lightly sweet and aromatic. The tansy flowers add a gentle bitterness and a distinctive floral note.

Serving and pairing

Best served slightly chilled, after a meal.

Label / history

Made by Alberto Burzi in very limited quantities.
