Armando Parusso

“Above all, I am looking for equilibrium and balance,” says Marco Parusso. “For me the real work is in the vineyard, where I try to achieve a personal rapport with the plants. Sometimes within the same plot the terroir can change completely within a few meters, so you have to be able to adapt.” The driven and passionate Parusso believes that if he achieves good results in the vineyards, his work in the cellar will take care of itself, and he tries to interfere as little as possible with the fruit once it is in the winery, doing a bare minimum of racking and using the smallest amount possible of SO2. Beginning with 2001 Parusso had streamlined his Barolo offerings to three wines. There is a normale made from younger vines, which also happens to be one of the best normales of the vintage, while the Mariondino is made from a vineyard in Castiglione Falletto. The Bussia sub-plots which had been bottled separately- Rocche, Munie, and Fiurin- are now assembled into one wine, which has also turned out beautifully in 2001. The Barolos are all aged in 100% new barriques, although you would never know it tasting these wines.
