Piero Busso Barbaresco San Stunet 2019
Region: Barbaresco, Piedmont
Variety: Nebbiolo
Country: Italy
Vintage: 2019
The Wine
Grown on steep 400 m slopes in Treiso, Busso’s San Stunet is raised with meticulous care: fermentation in wood and aging in large botti. Limestone-rich marl soils yield deep Nebbiolo with precise tannins, clarity, and freshness that’s true to the vintage
Cellared says
A classically structured Barbaresco with intensity and lift. Chalky, mouth coating tannins, rich dark cherry, violet, mocha, spice with a bright acidity and a long, refined finish make it an excellent modern expression of the cru.
Wine Reviews
“The 2019 Barbaresco San Stunet is a wine of real stature and depth. Macerated dark cherry, cloves, menthol, licorice, mocha, crushed rocks and dried herbs convey the essence of Treiso. This potent, virile Barbaresco has a ton to offer.”
94 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
“Cherry, liquorice, stony, grilled nuts. It’s a fleshy wine, bright cool acidity though rich nutty fruit, lots of fine crushed rock tannin, with a finish of excellent length. It has depth and interest, and there’s something about it that gets me in.”
