Poderi Colla Dardi Le Rose Bussia, Barolo DOCG, Italy 2018
A symphony of aromas for a majestic ‘classic’ Barolo, complex and harmonious, fruity and elegant, with great ageing potential.
The Dardi di Bussia sub-area is historically considered one of the great Barolo crus. Mentioned among the most qualified positions in L. Fantini’s ‘Monograph on Viticulture and Oenology in the Province of Cuneo’ of 1880 and in the Atlas of the Great Vineyards of Langa published by Arcigola Slow Food.
Intense garnet red, wide and elegant bouquet delicately spiced with hints of flowers, small red fruits and goudron. Rich structure on the palate supported by soft tannins, enveloped in ripe fruit and liquorice. A 'majestic' traditional Nebbiolo with the power, harmony, and complexity of a great orchestra! Extraordinary ageing potential. It is perfect with red meat and furry game dishes, but also for very rich fish dishes, such as baked turbot, as well as for a fine cheese dinner.
