About the Wine

"White Muscat of Canelli" is an ancient grape variety dating back to Roman times, famous worldwide for its rich aroma and festive fragrances. This unique wine, naturally fermented and low in alcohol, is lively, fresh, and cheerful, making it best enjoyed young.

La Bollina Winery is located in Serravalle Scrivia AL, Italy. A municipality in the province of Alessandria in the Italian region of Piedmont, located about 62 miles southeast of Turin and about 16 miles southeast of Alessandria.

This historical territory, which specializes in DOCD Gavi, was for centuries the residence of the Marchioness Figari of Genova. A 120 ha winery, surrounded by hills and chestnut forests is the location where magnificent wines are made.

Besides having 28 ha of cultivated vineyards, an excellent and well-equipped cellar, in La Bollina you can find luxury accommodation for guests: An “Art Nouveau” style villa, a modern 4-star hotel and a 9-hole golf course that expands throughout the vineyards.

The Bollina winery is completely renovated and has some of the most advanced techniques, systems and instruments in modern winemaking.

Andrea Bernardini is a passionate consultant winemaker who has hit numerous home runs. He graduated from Pisa, one of the best schools of oenology in Italy, in 2007. He earned his chops at Poggio Bonelli and Ruffino in Tuscany and trained in South Africa, Romania and Greece. After several years of experiences, he is now a flying winemaker blending tradition and modern techniques to obtain high-quality wines with respect to the expression of the different grapes and terroir in which he works.

Tasting Notes

100% White Muscat. The wine is characterized by floral and fruity nuances: orange blossom, pears, golden apples, pineapple, moss and sage hues. A perfect match for biscuits, non-creamy pastry and fruit, it combines unexpectedly
but successfully with fresh cold cuts and fermenting cheeses.
