About this wine

Burzi’s Barolo 2021 blends fruit mainly from Roncaglie, with additional Nebbiolo from Rive and Capalot, all in La Morra. The wine typically sees about 30 days on the skins with regular pump-overs before ageing in large 60 hl Slavonian oak botti, followed by one year in concrete, emphasising purity over heavy oak. Expect aromas of dark cherry and berry fruit, rose and violets with hints of spice and earthy minerality, and a medium-plus bodied palate with firm yet refined tannins and fresh acidity. This is serious Barolo from a young producer quickly gaining a cult following.

In the nose

Dark cherry and berries, rose, violets and subtle spice and earth.

On the palate

Medium-plus bodied with concentrated fruit, firm but fine tannins, bright acidity and a long, savoury, mineral finish.

Alberto Burzi

Burzi is a younger family estate in La Morra, making vibrant, modern-leaning interpretations of Barolo and Langhe varieties. The focus is on clear fruit, polished tannins and accessibility without sacrificing depth. As a relatively new name, Burzi is increasingly watched as a promising Barolo address.
