The 2017 Barolo Bussia is a dark, sensual wine that captures all of the nuance that makes the best wines from Barolo so beguiling. Spice, menthol, sage, licorice and dark cherry fruit all open in the glass. The 2017 is deep and layered, yet also remains light on its feet. I especially admire the transparency here.

A subtle nebbiolo here with medium body, silky texture and lots of cherry and red-berry aromas and flavors. Some tobacco, too. Easygoing, integrated, drink-me-now Barolo.
Prunotto’s Barolo is garnet red in color. The nose is complex and generous with pleasing aromas of rose petals, red fruit and spicy notes. The palate is full, well-balanced with velvety tannins.
