About Silvano Bolmida
This family-owned estate, located in the historic Bussia vineyard of Monforte d’Alba, showcases one of Barolo’s most renowned and coveted terroirs.
The estate spans 7.4 hectares of sustainably certified vineyards, situated at an altitude of 420 to 470 meters above sea level. Each harvest is conducted by hand to ensure perfect ripeness and balance from each and every cluster. Silvano’s winemaking utilizes slow, lengthy fermentations and extended skin macerations of 60-120 days. Aging takes place in a mix of small barrels and large casks, followed by a long maturation in stainless steel tanks for a natural balancing and decantation before bottling.
Founded in 1999, the winery began as an ambitious project by Silvano and his wife, Paola, in his father’s modest tractor garage. Since 2021, the operations have moved to an elegant new winery, with Silvano and Paola’s children, Francesco and Alessandra, now actively contributing to the vineyard work and winemaking.
