The Barolo Riserva Monfortino 2000 from Giacomo Conterno is an intense, powerful Nebbiolo produced exclusively in exceptional years and sourced from the Cascina Francia vineyard in Serralunga d`Alba. The wine is a profound expression of the traditional Barolo style, known for its long maceration and extended maturation of seven years in large oak botti. The 2000 vintage presents a character of finesse and delicacy alongside the typical Monfortino power, offering a complex profile of dark fruit, dried flowers, liquorice and earthy undertones. Its formidable yet integrated tannins and refreshing acidity suggest a long life in the magnum format.
