Boca DOC 2022 by Tenute Guardasole is a high-altitude volcanic Nebbiolo from the historic appellation of Boca, in Alto Piemonte. Grown between 460 and 490 meters with southern exposure, this wine combines 80% Nebbiolo and 20% Vespolina, expressing the tension and minerality of ancient porphyry-rich volcanic soils.

Certified organic and harvested by hand in early October, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks followed by approximately 25 days of maceration. The wine ages for 34 months, including at least 18 months in large oak casks, developing structure and aromatic depth while preserving alpine freshness.

The result is an elegant and mineral-driven mountain red — fresh, savory and finely tannic, shaped by volcanic soils and strong diurnal temperature shifts.

👉 This is Alto Piemonte Nebbiolo with volcanic identity: structured, precise and built for aging.

About the Producer

Tenute Guardasole

Boca – Piemonte

Tenute Guardasole is the project of Marco Bui, created with a focused commitment to Alto Piemonte and the historic denomination of Boca. The estate covers approximately two hectares divided into three vineyard parcels along the Traversagna road, the traditional core area of Boca. Originally planted between the late 1800s and early 1900s, the vineyards were restored in 2009 with the two native varieties of the denomination: Nebbiolo and Vespolina.

The philosophy is intentional small-scale production. The winery remains compact, modern and rigorously maintained. Farming is certified organic.

No herbicides are used. Ground cover is managed with minimal intervention, often flattened rather than cut to protect soil balance and reduce disease pressure. Treatments are applied only when strictly necessary. Annual green manure with organic grasses, legumes and crucifers supports soil structure and fertility. Fertilization relies exclusively on organic inputs, with marine limestone used to regulate soil pH.

Guardasole represents a disciplined and organic expression of Boca — volcanic, alpine and built on precision rather than volume.
