Magnums only. Getting increasingly frustrated by now.

Rich, full-bodied medium garnet with a classy nose, featuring a consistent balance of tar, sweet fennel/anise, and floral notes. A smooth polished body is highlighted by a rich, dark fruit flavor profile, with raspberry cream and chocolate. The profile is well-balanced, with a supple finale that lingers. A lengthy, pleasing experience. A true gem, but not without its flaws.

Ruby red wine with a rich, velvety texture and a deep, mysterious color, similar to of licorice and tobacco suggestions that linger on the palate.

What the web is saying

Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Bussia is praised for its rich, full-bodied texture and complex flavors, including cherry, raspberry, and licorice. While some appreciate its smooth tannins and long finish, others find it one-dimensional or with a noticeable alcohol presence. The wine's potential for aging and pairing with diverse dishes is noted, making it a worthwhile investment for Barolo enthusiasts.

Voss Experts4.3

This Barolo from Giacomo Fenocchio offers an intense perfume of wildflowers and spices, along with a hint of licorice and earthy nuances. On the palate, it shows a lively acidity, a firm structure and a hint of tannins, along with a lingering finish. The flavors of ripe cherries, blackberries and licorice are intense and well-balanced. The wine has a great aging potential.
