My wife surprised me with a lovely bottle of a 2016 Ceretto Barolo for my 28th birthday! We visited Piemonte on our honeymoon recently and found a deeper appreciation for Nebbiolo. The Bussia MGA is one of our favorites.

We shared this bottle last night with a home cooked truffle risotto and seared sirloin.

Such a lovely bottle right now that is certainly still young after 9 years! We decanted for ~1 hour and it opened up beautifully.

We are still relatively new to identifying tasting notes but we tasted pepper, chocolate, plum and fig.
