Armando Parusso - Barolo Bussia 2012 (Pre-arrival) (750ml)
This item is available for pre-arrival.
James Suckling: 95 Points
Aromas of mushroom, white truffle, orange, and cloves. Full body, very velvety and juicy. Savory and spicy. Great length. Needs at least three or four years to soften but impressive.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
An impressive Barolo, this features enticing aromas and flavors of cherry, currant, tar, eucalyptus and iron. Firm, yet rangy and complex, with a long finish of sweet fruit, licorice and mineral.
Vinous: 93 Points
A dark, enveloping wine, the 2012 Barolo Bussia hits the palate with serious depth and intensity. It is also the darkest and most virile of Parusso's 2012s. Readers will have to patient. These wines have a way of developing beautifully in bottle, but it will be at least a few years before the 2012 shows all of its cards.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
The 2012 Barolo Bussia shows thick lines and a more astringent personality. You feel some of the heat the vintage in this inky, black expression of Nebbiolo. Give this wine a few more years of bottle aging before you pop the cork. Blackberry, plum and dried prune segue to spice, leather and tobacco. This Barolo delivers strong textural richness and long, fruit-driven flavors.
