Bovio is a boutique wine estate located in the heart of the Barolo region, in La Morra, run by the third generation of the Bovio family.  Originally only a very small operation whose wines were meant to be served in the family’s restaurant, they have now established themselves as one of the region’s reference-point wineries, exported around the world. 

Gianfranco Bovio began to look after his father Alessandro’s holdings in the 1970s, renovating the old cellars and dedicating himself with passion to making wines from their 6.5 hectares of estate vineyards. Now it is the turn of Alessandra and her husband, Marco Boschiazzo, to continue the family tradition with the cooperation of winemaker Matteo Franchi, and Robert Tofan. The operation has expanded some but still remains relatively tiny - a mere 65,000 bottles from eight hectares.  

Aged in stainless steel this is a versatile Barbera that is light on its feet.
