Parusso

Piedmont

The range of wines that Marco Parusso makes is nothing short of astonishing, and even more so when one considers that 12 years ago he had just one barrel and a whole lot of worries. Now, however, Marco is a man possessed of a passion virtually unique to the winemaking world, his desire to emphasise the expression of ‘terroir’ and promote the soil with which he works is unbelievable. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and a quick tour of the immaculate gravity fed winemaking area and impressive barrel cellar followed by a tasting in what is effectively his dinning room, serve to impress upon the visitor how uncompromising and skilled Marco is. You may also get to try some of his awesome salami, for which he has a quite separate, yet no less impressive reputation.
