Description: | Practicing Organic. Jeb Dunnuck 98 Points - "From the site of Conca, a small amphitheater where the Molinos own one-third of the vineyard, the 2019 Barolo Conca offers up pure aromas of red cherry, fresh balsamic herbs, and sweet flowers. The most concentrated of the wines in the range, it is still medium-bodied but has more richness throughout, as well as a more solar feel, with ripe wild raspberry, tea, and sweet tannins, though more grip. It leans toward the muscular side while retaining amazing purity and freshness throughout. If Luciani is the Burgundian equivalent of Chambolle Volnay, then Conca is the Gevrey-Chambertin.". 100% Nebbiolo from a.3ha parcel of Conca, an amphitheater-shaped vineyard on the south side of the Molino property. vines are planted with south-south-east exposure in calcareous clay soils. After harvest, the grapes and pressed and macerated on the skins for 10 days. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks; malolactic in French oak barriques. The wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barriques followed by four months in bottle. |
