Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Nov 18
The 2014 Barolo Bussia Cascina Dardi is a powerful, tightly wound wine. Sinewy tannins add to an impression of tautness in this mid-weight, yet super-expressive Barolo. Readers will have to be patient with the 2014, as the wine is a bit nervous today. Even so, there is enough inner perfume and sweetness to make me think all the 2014 needs is time in bottle.

Barolo

Barolo, the "King of Wines," is a prestigious red from Piedmont, Italy, made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes. Known for deep complexity, Barolo offers rich flavours of dark cherries, roses, truffles, and spices, with high acidity and firm tannins. It ages exceptionally well, evolving in depth and nuance. Barolo's diverse terroirs create a range of styles, from powerful to delicate. Top producers include Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Giuseppe Rinaldi, and Marchesi di Barolo, all of whom exemplify Barolo's tradition and quality.
