Prunotto Barolo Bussia Vigna Colonnello Riserva 2017
Vigna Colonnello is produced from one single prized hectare (2.5 acres) in the Monforte d’Alba area. This wine represents the two combined spirits of the Barolo area and celebrates the encounter of two first-class terroirs. A wine with silky tannins that expresses the finesse and elegance of Tortonian soils while exalting the structure and power of Serravallian terrain.

Colour

Bouquet

Complex with aromas of spices, even exotic spices, dried flowers, and forest floor.

Flavour
