BelColle Barolo Simposio

45 years ago the brothers, Franco, Carlo and Giuseppe founded the Bel Colle, since 2015, the vineyard became property of the Bosio famil. The sub-area of Verduno called Monvigliero has always been considered the best in the municipality, but also among the best in the entire Barolo wine production area.It is a natural amphitheater facing southwest, the classic afternoon sun, where the particular microclimate enhances the production of a very fragrant and delicate Barolo wine with a balanced body and soft, never harsh tannins. An extremely longlived wine that retains these characteristics over time.

Luca Bosio and Mario Albrito Winemakers In 1977, three brothers (Franco, Carlo, and Giuseppe) established the Bel Colle winery in Verduno along the north-west edge of Barolo DOCG. The winery was purchased in 2015 by Luca Bosio, an innovative young winemaker in Piedmont who represents the third generation of his family to tend vineyards and make wine in Piedmont. Bosio seized the opportunity to purchase such a prestigious property in Verduno, which is known for producing wines that are more delicate with an exceptional elegance and spicy, floral character. Notes of white pepper, dried strawberry, and violet are typical. Also unique to Bel Colle is the presence of a small vineyard planted to an ancient and rare indigenous grape called Pelaverga that is nearly extinct. The winery does produce a small amount of wine from this vineyard and it is highly sought-after.
