PARUSSO Barolo DOCG “Bussia” 2010

HK$1,090.00

Cultivated in Monforte d’Alba, in Località Bussia from the noble vineyards of Rocche (south/south-est) and Munie (south/west). 15-50 years old vineyards.

“The 2010 Barolo Bussia shows unique aromatic characteristics that distinguish this wine vintage after vintage. Marco Parusso’s interpretation of Nebbiolo involves more ripe fruit and sassy spice. You get toasted hazelnut, cardamon, pressed rose, resin and tar. The wine delivers substantial weight, depth and structure that you don’t often see in Barolo. I would recommend this wine to those who are familiar with the distinctive Parusso house style that puts priority on texture and power.” – Wine Advocate, 93 Points

Piedmont

Located, as its name suggests, at the foot of the Alps bordering France and Switzerland, Piedmont is the second largest of Italy’s 20 regions, after Sicily.
Recognized for its industry like Fiat in Turin, Piedmont is also one of the greatest regions in the world in terms of cuisine (don’t forget the white truffles from Alba!) and wine!
With 42 DOC and 17 DOCG, Piedmont has more wine appellations than any other Italian region. Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera but also Moscato or Dolcetto are demanded all over the world.

Parusso

The Parusso family story is one of dedication, passion, and a constant desire to improve through experimentation. Their dedication to their craft drives them to rediscover knowledge, traditions, and the ancient vineyard arts of their ancestors.
The story started in 1901 when Gaspare Parusso purchased the Mariondino plot.
Nowadays, Armando Parusso is run by Marco Parusso and his sister Tiziana. The estate has 30 hectares of vineyards.
Some 120,000 bottles of Barolo, primarily, are produced annually. Though relatively small, this estate has been earning high compliments from wine journals, including the influential Italian Gambero Rosso, which calls it an estate “which boasts some of the best terroirs in the entire zone.”
