Winery of the month: Giacomo Conterno
The winery of Giacomo Conterno was born in Piedmont in the early 1900s and has continued to amaze ever since for the production of exceptional masterpieces, appreciated and in demand all over the world, just like Barolo Monfortino Riserva di Giacomo Conterno. These are wines that are the result of careful work and a production that leaves nothing to chance. Here is a selection of these sublime creations.
Barbera d’Alba G. Conterno Francia 2019 0.75 lt.: a collectible wine with a deep red and enchanting hints of ripe fruit. In the mouth it is soft and elegant – just like its tannins – with delicate shades of orange peel. One of the best bottles of red wine for meats and braised meats.
Barolo Airone Giacomo Conterno 2017 0.75 lt.: a complex, intense and powerful wine. Licorice and dark fruit are the first notes that are perceived in the mouth. It is really pleasant together with a menu of game and truffle-based first courses.
Gattinara Conterno Cantine Nervi 2018 0.75 lt.: structured aroma and persistent flavor, a 100% Gattinara that stands out as any great red is able to do. It goes perfectly with red meat, game and… Dark chocolate.
Barolo Monfortino Riserva Conterno 2010 3 lt.: a unique vintage, from which derives an equally special bottle, ready to conquer the palate. Red fruit stands out among the most persistent flavors. It is an internationally awarded red wine, which manages to amaze even those who have already had the good fortune to taste it.
