Barolo Riserva Bussia Vigna Munie 2013 Parusso

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (96)

This is one of two special Gold Label wines being released now. The Parusso 2013 Barolo Riserva Bussia Vigna Munie is a monument to the hands-on and elaborate winemaking process practiced at this innovative estate. From a cool vintage, the wine has aged beautifully, falling into moments of sheer silkiness and smoothness when it hits the palate. However, there is tannic tightness on the close, and the wine's firm structure is intact, allowing for many more years of cellar aging. This is a special selection of fruit from the Vigna Munie that is found inside the Bussia MGA in Monforte d'Alba. This wine is only made in the best vintages, and this release is 1,893 bottles strong.

James Suckling (94)

– Elegantly poised mix of dried red fruit and spice on the nose. Full-bodied with fine, almost integrated tannins and a long finish. Still tightly packed.
