A single‑vineyard Barolo where Bussia’s iconic soils and skilled craftsmanship elevate Nebbiolo to multidimensional brilliance.
Aldo Conterno is known as one of the great names of the region, and Cicala is one of its most renowned cru vineyards. The name refers to the local cicada, symbolising warmth and the vibrant life of summer on the hills.
The vineyard is located on the renowned Bussia hill in Monforte d’Alba, known for producing powerful, structured and long‑lived Barolos.
Cicala is crafted through top‑tier artisanal winemaking: the Nebbiolo is hand‑harvested from a single vineyard, undergoes a long fermentation using traditional methods, and matures for 24 months in large Slavonian oak casks.
Cicala is a wine that turns every meal into an experience. It is the perfect match for game, slow‑braised meat dishes, truffle pasta or risotto, aged cheeses and antipasti. With a cellaring potential of 1–20 years, its longevity also makes it an excellent choice for collectors.
