Granbussia represents the pinnacle of Aldo Conterno’s Barolo production—a wine that’s a testament to both the land and the craft behind it. Sourced from three select vineyards in the Monforte d’Alba zone, Granbussia is made only in exceptional years, aged long in large oak casks to balance the power of Nebbiolo with refined structure and elegance.

The 2001 vintage is a perfect example of Barolo's ability to evolve with grace. At 20+ years, the tannins have softened, the fruit has deepened, and what was once youthful intensity is now a wine of depth and complexity. Notes of dried rose, tobacco, licorice, and earth meld with the dark cherry fruit, and the wine finishes with an elegance that speaks to its ageworthiness.

This is a bottle to hold onto, but it’s also drinking beautifully now—ready for those who seek Barolo with history already written.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 94
"The 2001 Barolo Riserva Granbussia is gorgeous today. The bouquet is starting to show its age, with early signs of tertiary evolution that take shape in the glass. There is more than enough fruit to suggest the 2001 will drink well for another decade or so. Nothing in particular stands out, just the wine’s textural beauty and incomparable finesse. Rose petals, autumn leaves and sweet spices waft from the glass as the wine continues to freshen up over time. This is a terrific showing from one of the icons of Piedmont."

Wine Spectator

WS 92
"Displays wonderful aromas of strawberry and Indian spices, with a hint of flowers. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins, a beautiful texture and excellent balance. Drinking really well now. One of the most balanced Granbussias yet."
