Aldo Conterno Barolo Bussia Colonnello is a prestigious single-vineyard Barolo from the famed Bussia cru in Monforte d’Alba. Produced only in exceptional vintages, this wine represents the pinnacle of Aldo Conterno’s winemaking philosophy—combining traditional Barolo structure with remarkable depth, precision, and refinement.
Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo and aged extensively in large Slavonian oak casks, Barolo Colonnello is powerful yet impeccably balanced. It delivers profound aromatics, firm but polished tannins, and exceptional ageing potential, making it one of Piedmont’s most sought-after collector wines.
