Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧

The wine has a brilliant garnet red and nuances of brick/orange red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, elegant and pleasing aromas of black cherry jam, raspberry jam, blueberry jam, plum jam and dried violet followed by good aromas of cocoa, leather, licorice, dried rose and vanilla. In mouth denotes good correspondence to the nose, a slightly alcoholic attack however well balanced by tannins, intense flavors and good body. The finish is persistent with clean flavors of plum, black cherry jam and raspberry jam. A well made wine. Barolo Bussia ages in cask for 26-28 months.
