Ioppa's rosé comes from young-vine Nebbiolo. In the cellar, the vinification is straightforward - it is crushed, drained and quickly pressed. Fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks. 'Rusin' is their great grandfather's name in Piemontese dialect.

The Ghemme DOCG, one of the beaconing denominations of Alto Piemonte, lies in the shadow of Monte Rosa at the upper reaches of the Sesia river. Cool and well ventilated, this is the land of Nebbiolo, though a notably different, medium-weight version compared to Barolo or Barbaresco. Here, the Ioppa family has been producing wines for generations (as far back as 1852!). The new generation has their sights set on the past glories of traditionally crafted wines from this region, rebounding from a decade of experimentation with small oak and strong extraction. Their secret lies in the vineyard, with extreme attention payed to pruning and then thinning the vines providing less quantity but an undeniable quality of grapes and a longevity in the wines par none. Local hero Cristiano Garella began consulting as an enologist in 2015 and has made strides with the family to solidify Ioppa as one of the region’s leading players.
