Note di degustazione
I am extremely impressed by Aldo Conterno's 2011 Barolo Bussia. The wine exhibits magnificent harmony and integrity, especially considering the warm temperatures of this vintage. It is elegant inside and out with a patina of aromatic cleanliness and sharp focus that sets it apart. The tannins are extremely fine, silky and polished. The wine excels at presenting the fine and elegant details that the mighty Nebbiolo grape can offer. It puts a magnifying glass to the grape and reveals that there are no blemishes to be found.

Aromas of flowers, dried mushrooms and plums follow through to a full body, with soft and round tannins and a flavorful finish. Drink or hold.
The 2011 Barolo Bussia is a very pretty entry-level Barolo from the Conterno family. Distinctly red-fleshed berries, sweet spices and flowers convey an impression of sexiness and accessibility that is impossible to miss, while silky tannins round out a finish with no hard edges. The Bussia is an excellent choice for near-term drinking. Readers will note that the entry-level Barolo at Conterno once again carries the 'Bussia' designation now that a parcel in Barolo that had been part of the blend in previous years has been replanted and is currently being used for the Nebbiolo Favot.
