Among the hills of Monferrato, where the vineyards stretch as far as the eye can see, the Piedmont DOC Sauvignon 4 Sorelle di Bersano is born. Here the freshness and liveliness of Sauvignon Blanc is skilfully interpreted by Bersano, which has been dedicated to the production of high-quality wines for generations. This grape variety, originally from France, is known for its intense aromatic profile and great freshness. The vineyards, located at about 350 metres above sea level, enjoy optimal exposure to the sun, which favours the complete ripening of the grapes. Harvesting, which is manual and selective, takes place between the second and third decade of September. In the cellar, the grapes undergo a soft pressing that allows the extraction of only the flower must. Alcoholic fermentation then takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks that allow the best possible preservation of the wine's freshness and vivacity. At the end of the transformation, the wine matures in steel for a variable period, depending on the characteristics of the vintage. This allows the aromatic fragrance of Sauvignon Blanc to be enhanced, without covering its fruity and floral notes. In the glass, it has a beautiful straw yellow colour, with greenish reflections heralding a wine of great freshness. On the nose, the bouquet is intense and pleasant and opens with fruity notes of peach, pineapple and lychee, enriched by hints of white flowers and the characteristic aromatic fragrance of grapes. In the mouth, however, it conquers with its freshness, savouriness and pleasant acidity. The finish is persistent and satisfying. On the table it goes well with fish dishes, shellfish, fresh and medium-aged cheeses. Its freshness and liveliness, however, also make it ideal as an aperitif.
More than a century has passed since the Bersano company was founded. The precise date is 1907, as proudly recalled on the home page of the company website. We are in Nizza Monferrato, the heart of the Barbera d'Asti district. The real turning point, however, came only a few years later, in 1935, when Arturo Bersano, a rare man in terms of intelligence and culture, a lawyer by family pride and a vine grower by passion, took control of the Cantina, which until then had been a family-run business and only sold its wines regionally. His work was inspired by the motto 'if you want to drink well, buy a vineyard'. A philosophy that, like a true pioneer, he would follow for the rest of his life. Thus over time, Bersano and, after him, the Massimelli and Soave families, owners of the Casa Vinicola, consolidated an impressive farmstead. Here, without forgetting the strength of tradition, quality grapes are still produced from which typical wines of the region are made. Particular attention has always been paid to the wood for ageing, the company's true asset. Cantine Bersano, in fact, keep large oak casks and tonneaux where, thanks to the constant temperature and humidity, the wines mature slowly for years. Today, Bersano is considered one of the most important wineries in Piedmont.
