The Burlotto family, one of the oldest producers of Barolo, achieved fame during the seventy-seven years that Commendatore Giovan Battista Burlotto (1850-1927) served as winemaker. Read More...
He pioneered selling Barolo in bottle rather than cask and his wines were highly regarded internationally. Today his great-great-grandson, Fabio Allessandria, is the winemaker. Pelaverga is an old, and rare, grape variety which the family has grown since 1800 in the town of Verduno.
The 2011 has a cherry-red color and aromas of Bing cherries with hints of white pepper. In contrast to the lighter style made by some wineries, Burlotto's Pelaverga is full-bodied and flavorful finishing with bright fruit. This is a great warm weather red and will accompany beef, lamb and Northern Italian dishes.

The complex nose of roses, blackberries, peppercorn and spices is matched by an equally dense and sophisticated palate of earth and dark fruits.

burst from the glass in this exciting, racy Nebbiolo. There is plenty of varietal character in the glass, but everything is simply dialed up to a higher level than has often been the case in the past. A generous, sweeping finish rounds things out in style. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2017."

ROBERT PARKER’S WINE ADVOCATE 92 POINTS! - "The 2009 Dogliani Siri d’Jermu (Dolcetto) is one of the most elegant, complete wines I have ever tasted from Pecchenino. Read More...
It flows with fabulous intensity in its dark jammy fruit, with silky tannins that add support and texture. This is a dazzling wine that impresses for its voluptuous, caressing fruit and big, expansive personality. Unlike some previous vintages, the 2009 is big, but not at all overdone. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2019."
The Dolcetto grape may not be familiar to many, and even ardent fans of Italian wine may have only tasted a few. The 2009 “Siri d’Jermu” bottling from Pecchenino is worth seeking out and will be a pleasure for just about any wine-drinker, not just the geeks. There is a supple, silky quality to the best Dolcettos that will excite many fans of Pinot Noir. The nose is a layered and enticing with scents of dried flowers and incense. The surprise here may be the depth and structure—Pecchenino’s “Siri d’Jermu” is from a steeply sloping vineyard based on limestone soils, providing structure and some heft to support all those pretty qualities up front. Seriously yummy wine.
