Barale Barolo 'Bussia' 2019

Barale Barolo ‘Bussia’ 2019

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Moving to Monforte at the top of Bussia we see the hallmarks of the top Bussia. The acid tannin complex is true to the form for the commune showing a playful grip. Bright red fruit with a certain delicacy combine with energetic acid.Again a beautiful perfume with a dark mineral slatey edge. Blood orange and a little phenol. Another great example of grape first Barolo showing its part of the commune of Monforte. Like the Monrobiolo a few more years in bottle will see this resolve, build and

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Perno’ 2016

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Excellent, immediately took me to the 2010 Riserva. Wonderful density. Every sniff sees another scent wafting out of the glass. Excellent, immediately took me to the 2010 Riserva. Wonderful density. Every sniff sees another scent wafting out of the glass. The tannins show the benefit of a long ripening season. Yes, they have structure, they are damn fine tannins of exceptional depth and length. Hints of tobacco, earth, savoury bits and such a long deep core of fruit. This will develop beautifull

Moving to Monforte at the top of Bussia we see the hallmarks of the top Bussia. The acid tannin complex is true to the form for the commune showing a playful grip. Bright red fruit with a certain delicacy combine with energetic acid.A fine Bussia with considerable depth and length. A delicate perfume over the top of a very fine transparent Barolo. Thirst quenching. Lovely red and savoury fruit. Delicate Bussia yet still with generosity, now there's a trick.  Complete refined. Delicious. Mou

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Perno’ 2013

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Bigger than most other wines, with more grunt in all respects. Complex. Chewy and very full palate with a wall of tannins. Meaty flavours with some ironstone. Old-school. Peter Godden, Neb Guru This is all Monforte, with giveaway blue fruits, violet, cherry liqueur and some mint. Firm, taut and fleshy, this is typical of this part of Perno, the Cerretta parcel, immediately adjoining Conterno-Fantino’s, with which it shares a similar darker ‘blue’ style. Tannins seem very ripe this year�

Poderi Colla Barolo Bussia 'Dardi Le Rose' 2021
The single best Dardi Le Rose I've seen from Poderi Colla. Serious wine, yet, with a playful side. Excellent tannins, depth and length. A dark note melds into red fruits. Fresh, energetic & layered.  Structured Monforte Tannins with a beautifully weighted presence.Lovely perfume. Earthy, forest floor, with a dash of licorice/tar + so much more going on already! A few years in bottle will see it through the first phase of development and into a very happy place. Plenty of legs on it and

Vajra Barolo 'Ravera' 2020

Vajra Barolo ‘Ravera’ 2020

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

The G.D. Vajra 2020 Barolo Ravera reveals wild forest berry, cherry, licorice root and sweet summer fruit. The effect is focused or chiseled thanks to animating acidity and pinpoint fruit flavors. Located in the village of Novello, Ravera benefits from open panoramas and cooler temperatures from the mountains. These factors make this cru one of the most promising in this era of climate change. This is a Barolo for the purists. Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate 96 Points AG 94+

Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo 'Bussia' 2021

Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo ‘Bussia’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Bussia is huge MGA. Giacomo Fenocchio's parcel comes from a peninsular at the top of the Commune sitting between Barolo & Castiglione Falletto. It's large enough to be split into 5-6 different fermentations. All very different from each other in personality. Fenocchio's beautiful Bussia a demonstration of the massive differences in style across Monforte. Often very structured, demanding patiences, Claudio's sites and wine making offer an elegant wine. It has some a degree of immediate genero

Ca' di Press Barolo 'Perno' 2021

Ca’ di Press Barolo ‘Perno’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

A density with a serious core of vibrant fruit lined by a  dark edge and truffles. Graphite, tar, tabacco. A lacing of fine perfume.  Serious presence here. More immediate generosity and playfulness than many Monforte’s. Purity with personality. Complete and harmonious. Optimised for the year. Fine acid. Beautifully handled proper Nebbiolo tannins that are refined at this youthful age for a Monforte. Grip of quality. Sensual, long and flowing finish. A special wine with plenty more to come.

E. Pira (Chiara Boschis) Barolo 'Mosconi' 2017
The 2017 Barolo Mosconi is a powerful, brooding wine. Black cherry, gravel, dried herbs, scorched earth, spice and leather add to an impression of gravitas. This is an especially somber, potent Barolo that needs time to soften. Even so, it will always be a brute. The substantial finish is a thing of beauty. The Barolo Mosconi emerges from the estates oldest vines, which are 70-80 years old, and is aged in barrique.Galloni

Margherita Otto 'M8' Barolo 2018

Margherita Otto ‘M8’ Barolo 2018

Nebbiolo | Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo

This one's another argument for blending sites! From a disciple of Maria Theresa Mascarello. The 2018 M8 is a blend of Castiglione Falletto, Monforte & Serralunga fruit! "Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. Lifted, perfumed red fruit of great appeal with complex, minty oak notes. A mouthful of juicy cherry fruit with supple acidity and fantastic, crunchy tannins. Freshness and bite combined with elegance. Hugely appealing."Walter Speller, Jancis
