1995 Bussia Barolo.
Still holding a deep red core with a bit of fading at the rim…impressive.
Dried Bing cherries, dried roses and flowers on the nose.
Dried red fruit, cherries and plums with mint and mushrooms.
Tannins are disappearing but the acidity is still so smooth.
A friend foraged for local Matsutake mushrooms and we made risotto with black summer truffles. — 3 months ago

Medium Ruby color with aromas of ripe berry fruits and floral spice. On the palate flavors of ripe cherry and raspberry, lively floral spice, herbs, nice balance with savory fine tannins on a medium finish ending with a nutty mineral character. Easy drinking. — 6 months ago
Reddish in color with medium intensity.
Strong fruity nose and medium in body, with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, currants, light wood, tobacco leaf, herbs, peppercorn, chocolates and earth.
Medium finish with grippy tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a very young Barolo from Piedmont. Elegant and powerful.
This Single Vineyard Nebbiolo is already drinking very nicely, and better with food.
A good quality wine that will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years.
100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged in large oak barrels for 32 months.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

Peaked. Rich cherry and very earthy. Still punchy but glad I drank this now. Always wonderful wine. — 3 days ago
