Pecchenino - 2020 - Pecchenino Bussia Barolo DOCG - 750 ml.

Subregion: Bussia (Barolo)

Pecchenino Bussia Barolo DOCG is a focused, traditionally styled Barolo from the celebrated Bussia cru in Piedmont. Made from 100% Nebbiolo, this wine opens to an intense garnet red color and an initially austere nose that unfolds to reveal floral high notes and ripe red-fruit aromas threaded with licorice, spice and tobacco. On the palate it shows refinement and structure — ripe red fruit sensations are framed by taut, compact tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering the classic balance Barolo is known for: power with poise. With clear roots in Bussia’s limestone-clay soils and Pecchenino’s careful sense of place, this Barolo is built to accompany traditional Piedmont dishes: fresh pasta with meat sauce and truffle, roasted or braised red meats, game and long-aged cheeses. Drink now with a decant to show the wine’s mid-palate fruit and aromatic complexity, or cellar for a decade or more to let tertiary notes emerge. This is an ideal selection for collectors who prize elegance over sheer extraction, and for diners seeking a wine that complements richly savory, aromatic fare. The scores from critics reflect strong quality, positioning this bottling as a reliably excellent expression of Nebbiolo from Bussia.
