The Barolo DOCG Bussia Vigna Rocche Riserva Oro 2014 Parusso is a prestigious red wine, an authentic expression of Nebbiolo from Monforte d’Alba.

Territory and wine style

This Barolo DOCG comes from one of the most appreciated areas of the Langhe, a historic region for the production of wines with great personality. The south-southeast exposure favors a balanced ripening of the grapes, contributing to a greater expressive completeness. The vinification involves a gentle pressing, a long maceration, and spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, without the use of sulfites, followed by aging in small oak barrels and a subsequent resting in the bottle. The result is a structured and refined wine, capable of evolving over time and offering a classic and intense interpretation of the territory.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it shows a ruby red with garnet hues, a sign of its evolution and important nature. On the nose, it offers a warm and enveloping bouquet, with dried rose petals, chocolate pralines, tobacco, and black truffle. On the palate, it is velvety, rich, and complex, with hints of sweet fruit, delicate spices, tobacco, and truffle notes. The texture is silky but supported by a solid structure, with a powerful and persistent finish that leaves a seductive and harmonious sensation.
