Aldo Conterno Colonnello Barolo
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | This benchmark Barolo is made from one of the prime vineyard plots of the large Bussia area in Monforte d'Alba. Powerful and earthy, with the taming of new oak barrels for aging, Aldo Conterno's wines maintain a tension between the traditional and the modern. Wine Spectator 96 Points - "There's a youthful exuberance to this polished red, as well as a good dose of new oak that frames the core cherry and raspberry fruit with notes of vanilla and sandalwood, plus a touch of coconut. The elegance, length and vigorous structure reveal this wine's full potential.". James Suckling 97 Points - " Freshly cut flowers with strawberry, peach and orange peel aromas that follow through to a full body with layers of velvety tannins, that have a fine texture and give a refined yet voluptuous mouthfeel. It shows class and harmony for this tannic vintage. Drink after 2027." |
