Marrone Barolo DOCG Bussia 750ml 14.5% (2017, Piedmont, Italy)
Marrone Barolo DOCG Bussia 2017 is a majestic expression of Italy’s most prestigious wine — Barolo, known as “The King of Wines and the Wine of Kings.”
Produced by the historic Marrone family winery in La Morra, Piedmont, this Barolo hails from the renowned Bussia cru, one of the most celebrated subzones of the Barolo appellation, famed for its power, complexity, and aging potential
Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, hand-harvested from select hillside vineyards, the wine undergoes long maceration and is aged for over 30 months in large Slavonian oak barrels, followed by bottle refinement
In the glass, it displays a deep garnet red color with brick reflections
The nose reveals a complex and evolving bouquet — notes of violet, rose petals, ripe cherry, truffle, leather, tobacco, and sweet spices
On the palate, it’s full-bodied and structured, yet elegant and refined
Silky tannins and balanced acidity create remarkable harmony, while the finish is long and layered, leaving impressions of dried fruit, balsamic herbs, and cocoa
Serving suggestion: Decant for at least 1 hour before serving at 18°C to fully express its aromas
Perfect pairing with braised beef, lamb shank, truffle risotto, aged cheeses, and wild mushrooms
