Barolo Riserva Bussia Gold Label 2012 150cl

Made only in the best vintages, the Parusso 2012 Barolo Riserva Bussia Oro was tasted from magnum. Exactly 1,160 bottles and only 108 magnums were released. This is a sunny and darkly concentrated Barolo that reflects the happy exuberance of the warm vintage. The fruit is quite rich, but it spans a large spectrum, with ripe plum on the one hand and tart cherry fruit on the other. There are additional notes of forest bramble, crushed flowers, tar, smoke and campfire ash. Compared to past vintages, this 2012 Riserva stands apart because of the more immediate accessibility of the tannins and the mouthfeel. This is all relative when we consider the wines of Parusso that always favor big structure and exceptionally long drinking windows.
