Since 2009, the vineyards have been cultivated according to Vajra's organic protocol. Intensive research is also conducted to monitor and improve biodiversity of both flora and fauna, not only in the vineyards but also in the vineyards and forests. The winery is sustainable and organically certified. The dragon depicted on the label is a symbol of courage. This drawing was designed by Gianni Gallo, and it represents his desire for this new venture.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. The fruit is carefully sorted and undergoes a whole-cluster, gentle pressing. Fermentations last up to twelve days in vertical vats at low temperatures.

It is a true family business and is currently led by Pio Boffo, the great-grandson of the founder. He continues the family's work with excellence and is now also responsible for a number of modernizations and changes at this beautiful, traditional company. He decided, for example, that owning vineyards himself was better for quality. Over the years, he has acquired several vineyards, primarily in the renowned Barolo and Barbaresco areas. The vineyard estate now covers 70 hectares and produces some of the house's finest wines.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested a few days earlier than those of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fermentation on the skins lasts approximately 12 to 13 days. This results in a wine that is a lighter version of the great vintages, yet with a distinct personality of its own.

The Favot estate is located just outside the village, in the heart of Bussia's historic center, where the vineyards lie at an altitude of around 400 meters on compact sands with grayish-brown hues, interspersed with white and bluish chalky marl. This interplay of sand and chalk gives Nebbiolo a fine structure, aromatic depth, and a subtle mineral note. The grapes for Il Favot come exclusively from younger vines, which, thanks to periodic replanting, are no older than approximately 15 to 20 years, thus bringing extra fruit and energy to the wine. The harvest is carried out entirely by hand in mid-October, with careful selection of the bunches in the vineyard. Since Aldo's death in 2012, his sons Franco, Stefano and Giacomo have run the estate, with a clear focus on lower yields and giving the various crus in Bussia an even sharper voice, as a continuation of Aldo's own \"middle way\" between traditional and modern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch2 data-start=\"1845\" data-end=\"1872\"\u003eVinification and maturation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"1874\" data-end=\"2947\"\u003eIn the cellar, Il Favot 2022 is vinified traditionally yet purposefully. The harvest is destemmed and fermented as red wine in stainless steel tanks, with skin maceration for 6 to 8 days at controlled temperatures between 24 and 26°C. This relatively short skin maceration is deliberate: it extracts minimal hard tannins from the skins, but rather a lot of color and aromatics, giving the wine a deep color and a remarkably soft texture. After alcoholic fermentation, the young wine remains in stainless steel for approximately 5 to 6 months, during which it is racked several times for clarification. Il Favot is then aged for approximately 18 months in brand new French oak barriques, which imparts notes of vanilla, spice, and finely toasted wood that blend beautifully with the Nebbiolo fruit. The wine is then bottled and rests in the bottle before release.
