This 2019 Barolo Bussia Romirasco from Poderi Aldo Conterno is a wine of immense power and elegance. On the nose, it unveils an intricate tapestry of red cherry, raspberry, and dried rose petals, interwoven with classic Nebbiolo notes of tar, liquorice, and a hint of forest floor. As it evolves, subtle nuances of tobacco, truffle, and cedar from oak aging will emerge. The palate is full-bodied and impeccably structured, showcasing firm yet refined tannins and a vibrant acidity that promises longevity. Flavors mirror the aromatics, with concentrated red fruit and savory characteristics leading to a very long, persistent finish marked by its characteristic tannic grip and earthy complexity.
