Bricco Bussia Vigna Cicala Barolo Nebbiolo 1985

Wow, floral, faint road tar, this twin Barolo tastes 20 years younger than the Colonello, so rich, so YOUTHFUL, so complex, super long and lingering finish, really close to, if not there already, perfect!! — 9 months ago

I love this wine. It’s one of my everyday quaffers. This ‘15 Barbera offers an (almost) Aldo Conterno concentration of classic flavours but lacks the oak treatment, so way much more Barbera nekedness involved here. — 7 years ago

Sor Aldo Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2017

Vino Nobile de Montepulciano is a unique Sangiovese. We fell in love with it when we visited the region. Perhaps a bit of an acquired taste because it has a bit of a stringent dark, earthy, gravel, irony finish following vibrant dark red cherry… but it only takes a glas to get hooked. Paired surprisingly well with aged Gouda cheese proving its robust structure and present earthy umami flavors. The wine is aged in a medieval underground space below the winery with soaring high vaulted ceilings representing a cathedral highlighting wine as a spiritual experience. Also the name of winery goes back the twelve century as a recluse living in the caves, where the winery stands today, was able to read the weather from the behavior of a hedgehog, riccio in Italian. — 3 years ago

Drinking it immediately brought me back to Montepulciano and their tasting room and the wine chapel. So many interesting stories

Vigna Colonnello Bricco Bussia Barolo Nebbiolo 1985

Lovely fully mature Barolo. The 85s are often on the decline, and this one may not be at peak, but wonderful balance, clear fruit, with a shorter finish than I recall from earlier bottles. 1 of 3 from a very nice dinner last night. — 3 years ago
