Barolo Bussia Romirasco 2022

The Barolo DOCG Bussia Riserva 'Romirasco' by the historic Poderi Aldo Conterno estate in Monforte d'Alba is an absolute monument of global winemaking and the most famous, prestigious flagship of the winery. Sourced from the historic Romirasco single vineyard in the heart of the Bussia cru—rooted in calcareous-marl soils rich in white marls and clay—this Barolo Riserva embodies the pinnacle of power, profound complexity, and legendary aging potential. The Nebbiolo grapes (Lampia and Michet biotypes) are harvested from mature vines tended with uncompromising care.

Cellar protocols strictly honor classical family traditions: spontaneous fermentation in large stainless steel vats with extended skin contact, followed by meticulous maturation in large Slavonian oak casks for roughly 30 to 36 months, avoiding any new barriques. Romirasco is released only after patient, extended bottle aging, standing as a regal, austere, and deeply layered masterpiece built to evolve gracefully over decades.
