SANSUSSì
"A unique wine, without added sulphites, created with the original process experimented by the Buganza family. A completely manual technique, using nature as an ally.
The cold of winter to stabilize the wine, the carbon dioxide from natural fermentation to preserve it in winter , waiting for the first hot days for bottling.
With these and many other small procedures you get a natural wine of rare pleasure, with very clear fruity scents "

Curiosity: the name “Sansussì” means “without problems”. When we have tried to make a wine without solphites we was the first in the Roero area and we feel worried about this sperimentation but after 4 years we drank it and the taste was perfect.
We anderstood that there wasn’t difficulties for we to make a wine without sulfites added, so: no problems to make Sansussì, no problems to drink it!
