TASTING NOTES

Production

Aldo Conterno's Barolo Bussia Cicala was born in the historic MGA Bussia, in the municipality of Monforte d'Alba, one of the most prestigious and well-known territories of the Barolo appellation. It is produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes from the Cicala vineyard, characterized by mineral-rich calcareous-clayey soils, capable of giving the wine structure, elegance and great longevity. Harvesting is manual and winemaking takes place in the classic and rigorous style of the winery: steel fermentation with prolonged maceration on the skins to extract complexity and finesse. The aging takes place for about two years in large Slavonian oak barrels, followed by a further period in the bottle that completes the evolution of the wine.

Organoleptic Characteristics

It appears to be a deep ruby red color with garnet reflections. On the nose it is deep and elegant, with scents of ripe cherry, plum and small red fruits, accompanied by notes of withered rose, licorice, fine spices, tobacco and light balsamic and mineral nuances. On the palate it is structured and harmonious, with dense but refined tannins, a vibrant freshness and a solid and coherent taste texture. The ending is long, persistent and of great finesse, with a remarkable capacity for evolution over time.

Occasion and Pairing

Barolo of great class and longevity, ideal for important occasions and moments of conscious tasting. It pairs beautifully with red meats, braised meats, roasts, game, structured dishes of Piedmontese tradition and aged cheeses.

Serving Temperature

To best enhance its structure and elegance, a service temperature of 16/18°C is recommended.

THE WINERY

Conterno

In the municipality of Monforte d'Alba, in the Piedmont countryside, lies the Conterno Winery. Here, the family of the same name that founded the winery is committed to producing and bottling its Barolo in search of the best balance and perfect quality. The winery's constant work has allowed it to evolve into the great establishment it is today, where the oldest traditions are still carefully followed, alongside the most modern and avant-garde techniques, to offer high-quality Piedmontese wines and unmistakably stylish red wines from Piedmont. Since it was founded, the fame of Conterno wines has spread throughout the area, giving the winery a meteoric rise. The success, however, has not affected the stable foundations of the family, which still works together in its production chain today. Their strengths remain the same: care for tradition, a search for expression of the terroir and a deep respect for what Piedmontese nature has to offer. Name and address of producer/distributor: Conterno - Via Ginestra, 1, 12065 Monforte d'Alba (CN). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
