Parusso
An ancient document, dated 1901, certifies the purchase by Gaspare Parusso of a small vineyard in the locality of Mariondino. This marked the beginning of the history of the Parusso winery, which has been located in the locality of Bussia since 1925, on the hillside that leads from Monforte d'Alba towards Castiglione Falletto, an ideal land for the cultivation of Nebbiolo. In 1971, Armando, Gaspare's son, began producing his own labels, and in 1986, Marco and Tiziana, the current owners and children of Armando, started their involvement in the company. A journey made of passion, love, and traditions, where careful work in the vineyards leads to fine and elegant products, very territorial.
The Parusso winery covers about 23 hectares, located within the Barolo district. The soils are of mixed composition and feature formations that recall both the Tortonian and Elvezian, with clay, marl, sandstone, and sand providing great diversity to the subsoil. The vineyards enjoy particular positions, within the cru of Bussia, Mariondino, and Coste di Monforte, and they are treated with the utmost respect for the environment and nature in which they are located. The native Piedmontese grape varieties are primarily cultivated, relying on the technique of microzonation of the soils, thus customizing every practice and processing, highlighting the peculiarities of the individual parcels. The rows are left to grow wild, and through the use of humus, efforts are made to provide the soil with the greatest amount of nutrients and oxygen. The harvest, carried out by hand, is delayed as much as possible to ensure that the grapes are always ripe and rich in aromas and fragrances; during the winemaking phase, great attention is paid to the contact of the grapes with the skins, an important moment through which each wine is further enriched with character and personality.
The wines signed by Parusso are a lively and vibrant expression of the Piedmontese Langhe, ranging from simpler, easy-drinking labels to the great Barolo crus, with “Mariondino” and “Bussia” being the most notable. Bottles are always characterized by an excellent
