Poderi Luigi Einaudi Bussia - Barolo - Red - 2017 :

 

The Iconic Barolo Bussia by Poderi Luigi Einaudi

Poderi Luigi Einaudi's Barolo DOCG Bussia is a stellar example of single-vineyard Nebbiolo from the highly-regarded Bussia cru in Monforte d'Alba. This wine is a true benchmark for the appellation, combining immense power with remarkable finesse, making it a mandatory addition to any serious cellar.

Tasting Notes

A deep garnet colour with hints of amber. The bouquet is complex and evolves beautifully in the glass, revealing layers of dark cherry, plum, liquorice, and cedar, underpinned by earthy notes of truffle and tar. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and intense, with a firm backbone of high, polished tannins and fresh acidity. The Bussia terroir imparts a distinctive mineral elegance, leading to an exceptionally long, memorable finish.

Food Matching & Serving

To fully appreciate its depth, serve this Barolo after a substantial decant at 18-20°C. It pairs magnificently with rich, hearty British and Italian classics.

• Suggested Pairings: Beef Wellington, Roasted Venison Haunch, Wild Mushroom Pie, Mature Cheddar or Blue Stilton.
• For the Cellar: Built to last, with a drinking window of 20-30 years.
