Bel Colle Simposio Barolo 2019 - Piedmont
Alc: 14.5%
Closure: Cork
Bottle size: 750ml
Only recently included in Bel Colle’s cultivation plots, Bussia is the most famous vineyard in Monforte d’Alba, a true icon of Barolo. An area of absolute value that Bel Colle has the honour of cultivating in one of its highest portions near the village of the same name, with excellent south-southwest exposure. Intense garnet red, ample and elegant bouquet, delicately spiced with hints of flowers and small red fruits. On the palate an opulent structure buoyed by soft tannins overlaid with ripe fruits and liquorice.
Our notes
This is very perfumed, fine-boned, and delightful to drink now. It is light on its feet, with red fruits and spice and silky tannins. Pinot Noir lovers will enjoy this wine. Scott

Producers notes
A natural amphitheatre exposed south-westerly, to the classic afternoon sun, where the particular microclimate exhalts the production of a Barolo wine which is very fragranced and delicate with a balanced body and with soft tannins.
Borgo Castagni is a synonym of Bel Colle, in fact the wine cellar stands in this locality which joins both Verduno and La Morra. They are household vineyards where the vegetative production is controlled and monitored daily by Belle Colle from pruning to gathering. It is exposed towards west-southwest and wines produced on calcareous-clay land with gypsum veining have an olfactory component which is unique for its intensity and persistence joined with an excellent colouring intensity.
We practice sustainable winemaking, with manual harvesting, slow pressing of the grape cluster and balanced maceration. Each phase has the aim of storing and transmitting, in whole, the balance and the harmony of the grapes into the bottle all the way to the glass.
