The Barolo Riserva DOCG in Jeroboam format from the famous "Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia" vineyard is a true gem for wine lovers, offering a magnificently rich and complex expression of Nebbiolo from one of the most prestigious areas of the Barolo appellation. The Jeroboam format, which is equivalent to four standard 750ml bottles, not only highlights the importance and rarity of this wine, but also promotes optimal ageing, allowing Barolo to develop and refine its already extraordinary organoleptic qualities over time.

The "Pianpolvere Soprano" vineyard is located in the renowned Bussia sub-area of ​​Monforte d'Alba, an exceptional terroir that is known for producing Nebbiolos of extraordinary depth and longevity. Careful viticultural practices, combined with a rigorous selection of the best grapes, are fundamental to creating a Barolo Riserva that represents the pinnacle of quality.

The vinification and aging process of this Barolo Riserva follows the Piedmontese tradition, with a long maceration of the skins to extract maximum aromas, colors and tannins, followed by a prolonged period of maturation in large oak barrels. This not only helps to soften the characteristic tannins of Nebbiolo, but also enriches the wine with an aromatic complexity that ranges from fruity to spicy, from floral to balsamic.

Visually, the wine has an intense garnet hue, tending towards orange with aging. On the nose, Barolo Riserva "Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia" expresses a wide range of aromas: berries, dried roses, tobacco, spices, and earthy and mineral notes that reflect the richness of its terroir of origin. In the mouth, the wine is powerful yet balanced, with a solid tannic structure that supports a rich, layered palate, leading to a long, persistent finish, a hallmark of its high quality and aging potential.

A Barolo Riserva "Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia" in Jeroboam format is ideal for special occasions, capable of further elevating important convivial moments or enriching a wine collection with a piece of exceptional value. Its ability to age gracefully promises an evolution that Barolo lovers will appreciate for many years to come.
