Barolo Bussia 'Dardi le Rose' 2018

The Collas are one of the oldest and most established families in Piedmont, and yet their wines somehow remain under the radar. Over the last few vintages, quality has been especially strong. Readers who enjoy transparent, classically made Barolo and Barbaresco will want to check these wines out. Antonio Galloni

The Colla's have a little over six hectares in the Bussia hamlet of Dardi which historically was part of Bussia Soprana. Pietro's uncle, the late and legendary Beppe Colla, made the famous 1961 Prunotto Bussia from these vines, the first single vineyard wine in Barolo, and in doing so pioneered the concept of cru Barolo (and Barbaresco). Bussia is renowned for Barolo of great depth and concentration that rewwards long term cellaring. Typically, this has brooding aromas of scorched earth, spices and tobacco that lead to rich, complex layers of dried figs, plums and prunes that gradually open on the palate, finishing long and sweet.

"Just mid ruby. Fragrant, lifted dark earth and cherry with bags of spice and a hint of tar. Supple yet still a little embryonic on the palate and with a thick layer of polished tannins. Very long and elegant as well as complex and Bussia like I have never seen it before." 17++ points, Walter Speller for jancisrobinson.com
