About this wine

La Serra is one of La Morra’s most prized crus, and Bussolo’s interpretation is all about precision and lift. The 2021 vintage shows an aromatic nose of rose petals, sour cherry, pomegranate and orange peel, with hints of herbs and sweet spices. The palate is taut and chiseled rather than opulent: medium-bodied, with very fine tannins, vivid acidity and a long, mineral-driven finish. It’s an extremely refined style of Barolo, closer to Burgundy in texture than many traditional bottlings, and will appeal to drinkers who value fragrance and finesse over sheer weight.

Tasting Note

Critics emphasise its elegance and definition: a Barolo of roses, red berries and citrus zest, with silky but persistent tannins and a lingering, saline-mineral aftertaste.

In the glass

Luminous, medium-pale garnet.

In the nose

Rose petal, sour cherry, pomegranate, orange zest.

On the palate

Fine-boned, vertical Barolo with silky tannins and mineral length.

Cesare Bussolo

A protégé of Roberto Voerzio, Cesare Bussolo is one of La Morra’s rising stars, crafting finely etched Barolo and Barbera. Tiny yields, careful selection and a gentle extraction aim to highlight purity of fruit, florality and silky tannins rather than brute power. His wines feel contemporary yet deeply rooted in traditional Piedmont terroir.
