94 points - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, June 2021

Opening to a dark color and robust consistency, the Poderi Aldo Conterno 2017 Barolo Bussia Romirasco is perhaps the most powerful of the four new releases reviewed here.

Wearing broad shoulders and sporting a heavy gait over the palate, the wine sees a solid construction of dark berry and spicy or toasted oak aromas.

There is a lot to behold in this bottle, and it definitely shows the potential to soften and relax with more cellar aging.

However, you definitely need to put the bottle aside for a few years to fully appreciate its depth and complexity.
