Giacomo Conterno, Barolo 1967

Conterno Barolo is a legendary family operation. With viticulture roots in the region going back to the 18th century, their first bottling was created by Giacomo. At the time, Barolo was considered an early-drinking, everyday wine that was sold in bulk. Giacomo, however, decided to produce something with serious aging potential. His first vintage is said to be the beginning of Barolo as we know it today and he named it ‘Monfortino’ after his home village. If you travel around Piedmont, this is the bar other producers hope to reach.

*Opening old wine can be tricky. Many corks are fragile, and if you’re not careful, can break. Just because a cork crumbles doesn't mean the wine’s off. If you're new to buying old wine or curious about the condition, just reach out. 

Please note: we aren’t able to take returns of any corked or damaged bottles.
