The Barolos of Giacomo Conterno are renowned for their extraordinary combination of power, subtlety and longevity, and to many represent the apogee of Italian fine wines. Giacomo Conterno produced Barolo Monfortino for the first time in 1934. It was the first Barolo wine to be made in what is now considered the `classic` style. To many aficionados, it is the ultimate expression of Nebbiolo.

Offers a complex nose of dried roses, tar, and cherries. On the palate, it reveals layers of flavors including tobacco, licorice, and forest floor, with a remarkable balance and long, evolving finish.

The Barolo collection from Bartolo Mascarello represents the pinnacle of traditional Barolo, made from Nebbiolo grapes sourced from some of the best vineyards in the Barolo region. The wines are celebrated for their depth, complexity, and ability to age gracefully for decades.
