Giacomo Fenocchio, Barolo Bussia, 2013
Take a tour of Barolo's crus through one producer's hands. Giacomo Fenocchio is among Flatiron's favorite traditional discoveries, an unsung estate where Claudio Fenocchio farms conscientiously and ages everything in large Slavonian casks, releasing single-cru bottlings that show their sites with rare clarity. This is the Bussia, from Monforte d'Alba: typically the broadest and most generous of his crus, with depth and an earthy power. The 2013 was a glorious, structured classic vintage that Flatiron singled out as the one to show this producer's true potential. Now maturing, with a decant it's drinking well and will keep.
