Nebbiolo from Bussia, Monforte d'Alba
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
Nebbiolo from Commune di Barolo, Barolo
Fenocchio's Castellero comes from a cooler site east facing site. With similar soils to Cannubi. Darker fruited than Cannubi. Ripe, layered, nutty tannins, with an elegant, composed wine with a dark edge, lovely acidity support perfectly weighted core of fruit with a balanced richness.

Nebbiolo from Commune di Barolo, Barolo
Fenochhio's plot of Cannubi was purchased in 1973 and replanted in 1974. Here the soils are sandier soil than his Bussia in Monforte. The vineyard in the Cannubi Boschis sub-section from the lowest part of Cannubi. A very elegant, sophisticated Cannubi, with a wonderful core of vibrant red fruit, laced with a dried bouquet of flowers. A fine line of acid keeping the wine super fresh. A classic vintage. Delicate with fine dusty tannins, an incredible perfume lifting from the glass. Evolution in t
