Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Bussia Riserva DOCG 2016

A very special Barolo from a great producer and an exceptional year, 2016, the vintage of the decade, if early tastings are anything to go by and we think they are. The 2016 vintage in most classic European wine regions has made top notch reds with the power, structure and beauty to drink gorgeously well now and age for at least a decade. 

This incredibly full bodied, powerfully dry Nebbiolo spent 30 months in large format Slovonian oak after old school fermentation in oak. That's a whopping amount of time by any stretch, but it sits well in this wine. 

A keeper.
