Bussia Cicala Barolo Nebbiolo
Vintage 2009 | Every wine taster is entitled to at least one deviation, mine is that I am not so fond of Barolo. This wine is balanced, chocolate and coffee in taste, souplesse. But also that earthy mineral stinking smell.

Apr 18th, 2023Large-scaled, pushing Nebbiolo-boundaries to the limit, with its expansive fruit, spice, tannic grip and mineral-lazed finish.
