Note di degustazione
The 1993 Barolo Cascina Francia exhibits a dark ruby color with purple nuances, in addition to aromas of roasted herbs, tobacco, tar, kirsch, and dried cherries as well as some volatile acidity. In the mouth, it is dense, medium to full-bodied, with good concentration, and dusty tannin in the finish. It can be drunk now, but promises to evolve for another 15-20 years. This impeccably made, traditional wine is not for everybody, but it will handsomely repay cellaring, and represents a winemaking style that, hopefully, will never be extinguished by the new, more supple-textured, darker-colored, earlier bottled wines.

Informazioni sul produttore
Giacomo Conterno è probabilmente l'azienda agricola più celebre del Barolo. Sebbene sia famosa soprattutto per il suo Monfortino Riserva, la qualità riscontrabile in ogni imbottigliamento di Nebbiolo e Barbera in questo luogo ne fa un produttore di riferimento per entrambe le varietà.
