Barolo Bussia Cicala 2014, RP 94, JS 95, WS 93

 
Grape: Nebbiolo
Winery: Aldo Conterno
Piedmont, Italy
 
Barolo is a strong and elegant red wine from Northern Italy.
On the nose linger plum, blackberry, dark fruit, menthol and licorice, strong tannins and traces of almond.  Barolo has a long finish, strong tannins and a structure that alllows it to go the distance.
