Classic Nebbiolo aromas of woodland berry, forest floor, new leather and a whiff of rose lift out of the glass along with a whiff of botanical herb. Delivering elegance and structure in equal measure, the linear palate features red cherry, strawberry compote, baking spice and licorice framed in firm, polished tannins. Bright acidity keeps it well balanced.

“The 2016 Barolo Bussia Dardi Le Rose is a wine of total finesse. Classic Nebbiolo aromas of rushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, anise and spice give the 2016 captivating inner perfume to match its translucent, mid-weight personality. Pliant, exquisitely layered and so incredibly inviting, the 2016 is going to be tempting early. Very well-balanced. It is a fabulous wine in every way!” Drink 2024–2036.
