Description
Giacomo Conternoās Barolo Riserva Monfortino is the estateās historic reserve from Monforte dāAlba, released only in vintages judged exceptional. It is a Barolo DOCG made from Nebbiolo grapes sourced from the estateās vineyards, traditionally centered on the Francia cru and sometimes including fruit from nearby parcels in certain years. The wine is characterised by the longevity and structural depth typical of top Barolo riservas. Winemaking and ageing follow the estateās traditional approach, with prolonged maturation prior to release.
