Description

The 2019 Barolo “Riserva Monfortino” by Giacomo Conterno is one of the most iconic wines in the world, an absolute symbol of elegance, power, and longevity. Produced from the finest Nebbiolo grapes of the Francia cru (and partly Arione) in Serralunga d’Alba, it represents the pinnacle of traditional Piedmontese winemaking. A Barolo of classic style, it is vinified using traditional methods and aged in large Slavonian oak casks. With a beautiful intense garnet-red color and elegant luminosity, it presents an expansive and intense bouquet, featuring aromas of ripe cherry, dried violet, dark spices, leather, licorice, aromatic herbs, and balsamic hints. A wine of great complexity and character, on the palate it is powerful and structured, with elegant and well-integrated tannins. Long, intense, and persistent, it offers a refined and complex tasting experience, destined to evolve for decades. Ideal as a wine for meditation or special occasions, it pairs perfectly with roasts, braised dishes, game, and aged cheeses. The 2019 Monfortino by Giacomo Conterno is not just a wine, but an oenological masterpiece, sought after by collectors and enthusiasts around the world.
