    Description

    Viticulture
    Working organically in the vineyards since 2018 they were certified as organic in 2022. Sustainable agricultural practices, following the rules for integrated farming which prohibit the use of herbicides. Rigorous green harvesting and bunch selection in the vineyards ensure that only perfectly ripe fruit is harvested.

    Winemaking
    The harvest in the Bauda vineyard takes place in the first week of October and grape selection is by hand. Immediately after having been harvested, the grapes are pressed in the Estate cellar and then poured into stainless steel vats. Maceration along with alcoholic fermentation lasts 12 days. Throughout all the steps, fermentation temperature is constantly kept under control and never exceeds 30°C. The wine is bottled in July, and bottle refinement goes on for three months.

    Food matching

    Producer Profile

    Wine aside, Piedmont is almost as famous for truffles – those elusive, delectable delights that have to be rooted out from the depths of the forest.

    Much the same might be be said of Olim Bauda – a secluded family estate that lies at the end of long drive off the busy Via Prata. Here the road gently meanders and continuously rises before the family home finally reveals itself amidst a grove of trees, though if you arrive in truffle season it is more likely to be shrouded in mist. The estate is run by siblings Dino, Diana and Gianni, all of whom have devoted themselves to creating fresh, expressive Barbera d’Asti and pure, scintillating Gavi in the most delicate, low-intervention way. Without doubt these wines, like truffles, are worth any trouble you might have finding them.
