Barolo Bussia

Full

Cork

The 2021 is bright and expressive to begin, displaying sage and thyme-inflected cherry and raspberry. Pressed violet joins in on the palate, buoyant and agile and never feeling weighed down – yet it doesn’t lack fruit depth. The tannins are finely extracted though still a bit austere. Tobacco and allspice appear on the finish. The Colla family has a deep connection with the Dardi subsection of Bussia as this is where Beppe Colla crafted one of the first site-specified Barolos in 1961. His winemaking philosophy lives on through his brother and nephew. Maceration time is never longer than three weeks and ageing is exclusively in large casks – predominantly Slavonian oak.
