To the eye, it appears a light ruby red colour enriched with garnet reflections. The bouquet is intense, with notes of sour cherry jam, raspberries and plums, accompanied by delicate hints of violet. \u003cstrong\u003eHints of cocoa and leather\u003c\/strong\u003e then emerge, along with liquorice, tobacco and vanilla. On the palate, it expresses remarkable volume and breadth, evolving with elegance. The sip finishes with a \u003cstrong\u003epersistent finish\u003c\/strong\u003e, characterised by clear reminders of raspberry, plum and cherry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine is produced in the municipality of Monforte d’Alba, within the renowned Bussia cru. The grapes come exclusively from the \u003cstrong\u003eRomirasco vineyard\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is home to historic vines aged between fifty and fifty-five years. The rows are entirely planted with \u003cstrong\u003eNebbiolo\u003c\/strong\u003e. The Aldo Conterno winery is a key reference point for the region; its agricultural management delivers a faithful expression of the original vineyard, fully respecting the identity and prestige of Barolo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins in mid-October with a \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e and a rigorous selection of the grapes. Vinification involves alcoholic fermentation accompanied by a thirty-day maceration on the skins in steel tanks. After racking, the wine matures in large \u003cstrong\u003eSlavonian oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for thirty months. This lengthy ageing process stabilises the aromas and gives great balance, making it ideal for accompanying \u003cstrong\u003estructured dishes\u003c\/strong\u003e such as braised meats, roast veal, game and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded by Aldo Conterno in the 1960s, the winery produces this exceptional \u003cstrong\u003eBarolo Bussia D.O.C.G.\u003c\/strong\u003e, a true symbol of the prestige of Monforte d’Alba.
