Barolo of the most elite peerage, compiled from the finest Bussia vineyards in Monforte d'Alba, an assemblage of the best parcels Nebbiolo, Lampia and Michet, selectively hand picked off vines planted to limy marl and compact sandy soils on the three great Cru of Colonnello, Cicala and Romirasco. Only ever made from the most spectacular vintage years, treated to a month of warm temperature ferment on skins, followed by several rackings into oak for an extravagant thirty months maturation and several years bottle age under the Aldo Conterno cellars.
