ALDO CONTERNO LANGHE CHARDONNAY IL BUSSIADOR 2021

Aldo Conterno's Bussiador elevates Chardonnay through the prestigious terroir of Bussia vineyards in Monforte d'Alba. Hand-harvested in early September, this distinctive white undergoes partial fermentation in stainless steel before finishing in oak at precise temperatures, followed by extended barrel aging that builds remarkable complexity. Bussiador showcases impressive structure and aging potential rarely found in Italian whites—blending Piedmont's limestone minerality with sophisticated richness. If you've been craving Premier Cru white Burgundies, this exceptional expression from Barolo's master should be next on your list, offering comparable depth and finesse with a uniquely Italian perspective.
