Tasting notes
The 2019 Barolo Bussia is redolent of crushed red berry fruit, cedar, mint, spice, sweet pipe tobacco and orange peel. Firm and sinewy, with veins of insistent supporting tannin, the 2019 is a terrific example of the vintage and this bottling. Impressive. And gorgeous. Give it a few years to soften.

Monforte d’Alba. Still a little oak in evidence. Tight and focused on the finish. Still embryonic. Fairly lightweight with all those elements still knitting themselves together. Just a touch of ink on the end. (JR)
I like the perfumed aromas here with lots of fresh roses to the cherry and strawberry character. Medium-bodied with tight and fine tannins that spread across the palate and deliver brightness and focus. Citrusy aftertaste. Give this four to five years of bottle age. Try after 2027.
