Bussia

2007 Barolo Nebbiolo

The Parusso Bussia 2007 is an exceptional expression of Nebbiolo from the renowned Barolo region, known for its robust and complex wines. This red wine exhibits a deep garnet hue that hints at its age and richness. On the palate, it offers a full-bodied experience, gracefully balanced with high acidity that brings an invigorating freshness to each sip. The tannins are notable and structured, providing a solid backbone that complements the wine's opulent character. Fruit intensity shines through with prominent notes of dark cherry, plum, and hints of rose petal, all accentuated by savory undertones of earth and spice. The wine's dryness enhances its elegant structure, making it a delightful choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own. Overall, the Parusso Bussia is a striking example of Barolo's ability to blend power, grace, and timeless appeal.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
