Descrizione

The Barolo DOCG Bussia 2020 from the prestigious Ceretto winery fully embodies the tradition and excellence of Piedmontese winemaking. Originating from the acclaimed Bussia zone, one of the most recognized crus of Barolo, this wine is the result of meticulous winemaking techniques.

With a brilliant ruby red color, it already hints at its nobility at first glance. On the nose, it offers a complex and intensely aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits such as cherries and plums, enriched with elegant nuances of violet, tobacco, and a slight spicy hint of black pepper and anise.

On the palate, the Barolo DOCG Bussia 2020 by Ceretto reveals itself as robust and fully structured. The tannins are well-present but mature and enveloping, harmoniously integrating with a balanced acidity that promises excellent longevity. The finish is long and persistent, with a aftertaste that recalls spices and undergrowth.

This wine is excellent to enjoy with rich dishes such as braised meats, truffle-based dishes, and aged cheeses. The Ceretto winery recommends letting it decant for a few hours before serving to savor it at its fullest expression. A true oenological gem to have in your cellar, also ideal for prolonged aging.
