"His 2006 Barolo Cascina Dardi Bussia flows from the glass with gorgeous crushed flowers, berries, spices, licorice, cherries and kirsch, showing beautiful inner perfume and plenty of muscle. It is a structured, powerful Barolo best laid down for at least a few years. In most years Fantino bottles two non-Riserva Barolos; one aged in cask the other in French oak. Because of a change in his US importer, in 2006 Fantino blended the two wines together." Vinous, Dec 2010 |
