Tasting Notes: The 40 year old vines are grown over calcareous, clay soil in Neive. A touch of oak is added to the wine as it ages in different sized barrels for about a year. It’s full of ruby red fruits, vinous, intense yet joyous with potential to age 5-10 years, although delicious immediately.
Estate History: Founded by Guido Busso in the 1950s, the domaine is based in Neive, a high altitude comune of Barbaresco, and has at its core some fine Nebbiolo vines planted in the Albesani MGA opposite the winery. The estate’s exceptional holdings don’t end there, as they also boast parcels in the Gallina MGA and Treiso’s San Stunet. Winemaking here is traditional, long and slow, with up to 45 days of maceration on the skins and aging in 25hl Slavonian oak botti. The bewitching high toned fruit and natural elegance of Nebbiolo from Neive shines throughout the Busso’s production.
