WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Langhe Nebbiolo Automnalis is produced using 100% Nebbiolo grapes from Bussi Piero's estate vineyards. The winemaking process involves traditional red wine fermentation with maceration, typically carried out in steel tanks. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging, with other Bussi Piero Nebbiolo wines being aged in large Slavonian oak casks or French oak tonneau. The winery employs environmentally friendly farming practices and focuses on quality throughout the production cycle.
