The Langa is, in the imagination of many wine lovers, a promised land. An uninterrupted succession of hills characterised by magnificent soils, with ever-changing exposures. Nebbiolo is at home here. The Nebbiolo used in the production of this Barolo DOCG Bussia, in particular, comes from the estate's best vineyards planted between 1993 and 1999. A small plot of just over three hectares, where yields are kept low and the quality of the grapes harvested is particularly high. At the end of the vinification phase, the wine is aged for a long time in large Slavonian oak barrels, for a minimum of 18 months, and then in the bottle. It is only at the end of this long process that we obtain a wine characterised by a typical soft ruby red colour, with a broad bouquet of aromas ranging from roses to sweet spices. In the mouth it is inviting, harmonious, with fine, silky tannins that make the sip extremely long and pleasant. A meditation wine par excellence, it requires an important accompaniment at table. Excellent with game, roasts or mature cheeses.

A high quality Barolo, the result of a careful selection of grapes from the Bricco. The mention Riserva, on the other hand, in a territory with such a vocation as the Langa, is always a sign of great selection, longer ageing, quality and refinement. But let us proceed with order. The grapes, 100% Nebbiolo, as required by the strict disciplinary, come from the Arnulfo Estate, where the soils are particularly variable and where a correct southern exposure allows the grapes to reach perfect ripeness. The quality of the grapes and the super careful vinification, however, are only part of the recipe. The other ingredient needed to obtain a wine of this level is maturation in wood. In this case, it takes 36 months in large Slavonian oak barrels to reach the right degree of maturity. Only at that point is the wine bottled and then left to rest in the cellar for a further few months before being put on the market. A long, very long wait that is paid off when the bottle is opened and the first glass is poured. One discovers, in fact, an extremely complex and multifaceted wine. Spices, dried flowers, undergrowth and tobacco are only the first images that strike us. In the mouth, however, one discovers a wine of rare concentration, with fine, sweet tannins. Thanks to the long persistence, the pleasure of drinking seems to never end.

When the raw material is excellent, there is no need to exaggerate. A simple but careful processing is enough to put a great wine in the bottle. In this case, the Barbera d'Alba proposed by Costa di Bussia is also an excellent red wine of the territory. The grapes, which come only from the company's own vineyards, with plantings that are about 15 years old, reach perfect ripeness, acquiring fine aromas and scents. After vinification, the wine undergoes a period of refinement in small French oak barrels that guarantee perfect maturation and good balance. In the glass it has a beautiful ruby red colour, with clear notes of wild strawberries. It is a super enjoyable wine, thanks to its natural freshness and its beautiful persistent finish. A wine for the whole meal, it can be served with a traditional aperitif based on cured meats or with a rich dish of red meat and game, even grilled.
