TASTING NOTES

Production

Aldo Conterno’s Barolo Bussia Colonnello hails from the historic Bussia MGA, in the municipality of Monforte d’Alba, one of the most renowned and prestigious areas within the Barolo appellation. It is produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes sourced from the Colonnello vineyard, characterised by calcareous-clay soils that impart great structure, depth and elegance to the wine. The grapes are harvested by hand and vinification follows the winery’s classic and rigorous style: fermentation in stainless steel with prolonged maceration on the skins, aimed at extracting complexity and finesse. Ageing takes place for around two years in large Slavonian oak barrels, followed by a further period in the bottle, allowing the wine to achieve full harmony and balance.

Organoleptic Characteristics

Visually, it presents an intense ruby red colour with garnet highlights. On the nose, it is broad and complex, with aromas of ripe cherry, plum and wild berries, accompanied by notes of wilted rose, violet, liquorice, fine spices, tobacco and delicate balsamic nuances. On the palate, it is powerful yet elegant, with dense, well-integrated tannins, vibrant freshness and a deep, consistent flavour profile. The finish is long, persistent and harmonious, displaying great character and longevity.

Occasion and Pairing

A Barolo of great prestige and character, ideal for special occasions and for moments of thoughtful tasting. It pairs magnificently with substantial red meats, braised and roasted dishes, game, hearty traditional Piedmontese dishes and mature cheeses.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 16–18°C.

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.
