Tasting Notes: The Burzi Langhe Nebbiolo Runcaja is supple and spicy, with red cherry and fresh thyme on the nose. Cherries echo on the palate, with a soft acidity and mellow tannins providing structure.
Estate History: Alberto Burzi comes from a family of winegrowers in La Morra that previously sold grapes and leased vineyards (most notably the old vines in Capalot leased to Roberto Voerzio). In 2012 Alberto, after graduating from the University of Turin with a degree in Viticulture and Oenology and spending time working at Cantina Communale in La Morra with Nicola of Trediberri, took back the vineyards. Along with his sister Caterina, having worked briefly at Oddero, they manage 7 hectares of vineyards producing about 25,000 bottles each year.
