Giacomo Conterno, Barolo Riserva 'Monfortino' 2015

Giacomo Conterno is to Barolo what Chave is to Hermitage or Petrus is to Pomerol - a legendary producer whose wines are category-defining and nearly immortal. Conterno is the epitome of old-school, traditionalist Barolo. Run by the obsessively driven Roberto Conterno for the past 20 years, the style has remained unchanged, though the precision of the wines and scope of the range have both hit new heights. Monfortino is Conterno's top wine, and is only made in select vintages.
