The 2009 Barolo Riserva Bussia Vigna Colonnello is a new and very beautiful wine from Prunotto. It offers bold intensity and a big aromatic footprint. Dark fruit, spice, leather and road paving are rolled into one pretty package. The wine makes an impact thanks to its smooth transitions and long polished feel. There is, however, a slightly prickly point of acidity that keeps the palate en guard.
