2017 Costa di Bussia, Bussia - Barolo Riserva - 3 Bottles (0.75L)

Key characteristics: • Variety: 100% Nebbiolo • Appellation: Barolo DOCG (Monforte d'Alba, Piedmont, Italy) • Alcohol content: 14.5% • Aromatic profile: notes of medicinal herbs, incense, dried cherries, sandalwood, plum, with spicy or balsamic touches, and firm, structured tannins. - Parker points: 89/100 - Fill level (cork) - Label condition (Excellent) - Capsule condition (Excellent) - 750 ml - Bottling: At the estate - Ready to drink or to age - Shipping method: La Poste (Colissimo, etc…) Ideal tasting window: The 2017 vintage was marked by a warm year, yielding wines that are richer, more concentrated, and more precociously approachable than other cooler years. • Current status: The wine has fully entered its maturity phase. Its powerful tannins have softened. It offers an excellent balance between concentrated red fruit and its tertiary notes of spice, tobacco, and woodland. • Aging potential: The Costa di Bussia estate estimates the aging potential of its Riserva at 15 years. You can enjoy it now or let it develop in the cellar until 2032. • Serving advice: To release its full aromatic potential, open the bottle 1 to 2 hours before the meal or decant slowly in a carafe. Ideally serve between 16°C and 18°C. Food and wine pairings: The wine's solid tannic structure and vibrant acidity call for rich, flavorful, and textured dishes. • Meats and game: This is the recommended match from the estate. Favor braised meats (such as a traditional Brasato al Barolo), a wild boar ragout, venison steak, or duck breast with red wine sauce. • Truffle and mushrooms: The Nebbiolo’s earthy notes pair perfectly with Alba white truffles or porcini mushrooms. A mushroom risotto or tagliatelle with truffle butter would be ideal companions. • Cheeses: Opt for hard, aged cheeses such as Castelmagno (the local Piedmont cheese), Parmigiano Reggiano, or aged Pecorino.
