The 2015 Prunotto Barolo Vigna Colonnello DOCG is a prestigious single-vineyard Barolo Riserva from the renowned Bussia cru in Monforte d’Alba, crafted by the Prunotto estate (Antinori family). Produced only in select vintages, it represents a top-tier expression of Nebbiolo, combining power, elegance and exceptional aging potential. The nose is complex and perfumed, showing rose petals, raspberry and pomegranate layered with notes of spice, balsamic, tobacco and subtle earthy nuances.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with refined yet firm tannins and a dense core of red fruit. The wine shows both richness and precision, leading to a long, persistent finish with savoury depth and aromatic lift.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a collector-level Barolo and a standout from the Bussia cru, ideal for serious Nebbiolo enthusiasts. It offers depth and structure while maintaining elegance. Drink now with extended decanting or cellar for 15–25+ years. Perfect with truffle dishes, braised meats, game or aged cheeses.
