Piero Busso

Neive - Italie

Busso's philosophy was clear from the start: to make wines that express their terroir. The estate was created in 1948 by Guido, Piero's father. With the purchase of new plots, today the Busso family operates the Neive wine estate, with 10 hectares of vines.

The wine they want to bottle is a wine that respects the land, the vines and the fruit. A wine capable of bringing out the characteristics of all three, without distorting them and without forcing things. This is why from the start they have had an approach linked to respect for the earth, which goes beyond the organic certification obtained, by choosing not to use any herbicides or chemicals, to use sustainable treatments and an attitude green long before environmental awareness was as widespread as it is today. They favor large wooden containers for aging so as not to mark the wines too much.

It's truly a family affair Piero, his wife Lucia and their children, Pierguido and Emanuela, take care of everything. From working the vines to harvesting, from winemaking to sales.
