{"product_id":"dolcetto-bersano","title":"Cremosina Barbaresco Riserva Speciale 1968","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Cremosina Barbaresco Riserva Speciale 1968 is a red wine produced by Bersano, utilizing grapes sourced from the Barbaresco and Langa vineyards. The Bersano estate was founded in 1907 by Giuseppe Bersano in Nizza Monferrato. The historic Cremosina vineyard itself was acquired shortly after, in 1912. From 1935, his son Arturo Bersano took the helm, expanding the house's reach and building an international reputation. Today, the estate spans over 230 hectares across ten properties in the Langhe and Monferrato areas. The operations are currently managed by the Massimelli family, with Federica Massimelli stepping in as the estate's first female leader in 2021.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates from Piemonte, a prestigious wine region in northwestern Italy whose name literally translates to \"at the foot of the mountain,\" reflecting its position surrounded by the Alps. The region is celebrated for its deep focus on terroir and its dramatic, steep hills, particularly in the Langhe subregion. These hills are frequently blanketed in thick morning fog during the autumn, which traditionally protects the grapes and facilitates a long ripening process. The Barbaresco area, situated in the Langhe east of Alba, is classically known as a prominent winemaking zone. The conditions of the 1968 vintage in this region, however, are historically described as unripe and weak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile Barbaresco is traditionally associated with other varietals, this specific release is crafted from Dolcetto, a classic Northern Italian grape variety that is highly typical of the Piemonte region. Designated as a Riserva Speciale, the wine was bottled directly in the production zone. The historical labeling emphasizes that Bersano's wines are the result of carefully selected grapes from the classic vineyards of Piemonte, reflecting the traditional winemaking heritage of the estate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bersano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57297514201414,"sku":null,"price":210.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-1029_ea813771-65d2-4eec-a757-100b297020da.jpg?v=1788860921","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.nl\/en\/products\/dolcetto-bersano","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
