The Giacosa Fratelli Barolo Bussia DOCG 2017 is a powerful, deep red wine from the heart of Piedmont and comes from the prestigious single vineyard Bussia, one of the most renowned cru sites within the Barolo zone. With an alcohol content of 15% by volume, this Barolo expresses all the strength, elegance and complexity for which the wines of this region are prized worldwide. This fine wine is produced by Giacosa Fratelli, a family-run traditional winery that has been synonymous with authentic, terroir-driven wines for generations.
The grape variety used is 100% Nebbiolo, the queen of Piedmont, known for its expressiveness, structure and longevity. The vines grow on calcareous and clayey soils in the Bussia vineyard, which gives the wine its typical depth and minerality. The wine is matured in large wooden barrels, which gives the wine a noble spiciness, silky tannins and balanced ageing without masking the varietal characteristics. This Barolo is traditionally bottled with a high-quality natural cork, which further emphasizes its ageing potential. The 2017 vintage is already very accessible, but offers ageing potential until 2026, when it can continue to gain elegance and aromatic depth. (automated translation)
Tasting notes:
In the glass, the Barolo Bussia 2017 is an intense garnet red with brick-red reflections. The nose reveals complex aromas of dried rose petals, dark cherries, truffles, leather and delicately spicy hints of tobacco and licorice. On the palate, it is powerful and structured with a firm tannin structure, dark berry fruit, balsamic notes and a hint of cedar wood. The long, elegant finish is accompanied by mineral depth and fine spice.
Drinking temperature: 18 °C
This Barolo is the perfect accompaniment to braised game, rack of lamb, matured beef, porcini mushroom dishes or mature hard cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano. It also makes a convincing soloist on special occasions or as a meditative wine for quiet moments of enjoyment.
