Reviews
James Suckling 93
A fragrant nose with cherries, dried wild strawberries, spicy herbs, cardamom and citrus peel. Dried flowers, too. Medium- to full-bodied, crunchy and vibrant with firm and dusty tannins and fresh red berry character. Tangy and zesty finish with mineral chalkiness to it.

The Arnaldo Rivera 2019 Barolo Bussia shows a dark and savory side of Nebbiolo with thick concentration, dried cherry, plum, spice and oak-driven aromas of toast and tobacco. The tannins, with some bitterness, are prominent, and they seem to come both from the fruit and the barrel aging process. You get a powerful and very rich expression of Bussia in this wine. Production is 3,800 bottles.

This cru Barolo leaps from the glass with aromas of candied cherries and macerated raspberries all layered with clove, anise and cinnamon. Elegant and pretty, the palate vacillates between its core of vibrant cherry with anise and dried roses and leaves finishing with fine yet firm tannins.

A combination of cherry, mint, tar and licorice marks this solidly structured red. The muscular tannins and lively acidity are assertive today, yet overall this shows balance and fine length.
