There’s so much to love about the 2009 Attilo Ghisolfi Barolo Bussia. It’s a wine that requires some time to settle into, with initially shy nuances giving way to incredibly beautiful things that few other grapes and wine regions can duplicate. Tar and floral? Translucent and powerful? A contradiction full of complexity and intrigue that’s best served with special meals that last longer than an hour. Don’t rush this date. You’ll see (and taste) why it has a 94 point (Wine Spectator) rating.

Molto bene!
