Tasting Notes
Poderi Aldo Conterno Granbussia Riserva Barolo 2009 stands as an extraordinary testament to the noble Nebbiolo grape, delivering a profound expression of Barolo’s celebrated terroir. Crafted with meticulous care, this Riserva epitomizes depth, structure, and elegance, embodying the essence of traditional Piedmontese winemaking refined over decades.
Following an extensive aging period of 32 months in large Slavonian oak casks, the Granbussia undergoes further refinement with a minimum of ten years maturing in the bottle before release. This deliberate, patient approach ensures a perfectly harmonized wine, rich in complex aromas and flavors. Expect captivating notes of dried cherry, tar, rose petal, and earthy undertones that seamlessly integrate with polished, finely grained tannins, creating a palate that is both powerful and sophisticated.

The 2009 vintage continues this legacy, offering exceptional longevity and a dynamic tasting experience that evolves beautifully over time.
