Note di degustazione
The Giacomo Conterno 2022 Barolo Francia is defined by its mineral precision and beautifully linear sense of proportion. Bright cherry and redcurrant are framed by crushed stone and delicate floral notes, giving the wine a lifted, focused personality, despite the warmth of the vintage. The palate shows medium- to full-bodied richness, yet there is an inner energy and precision that keep the wine remarkably balanced. Fine, chalky tannins complete a Barolo of understated elegance.

The 2022 Barolo Francia is a total stunner. Rich, deep, layered and super expressive, the 2022 graces the palate with dark red cherry fruit, spice, rose petal, chalk, mint, blood orange and dried herbs. Bright acids and clean veins of minerality lend bracing energy throughout. Leave it to Roberto Conterno and his team to make one of the most compelling wines of the vintage.
Restrained and perfumed, showing bright licorice root, wild strawberries, watermelon and fresh violets. Full-bodied yet not exuberant, this subtle, elegant Barolo has firm, fine-grained and condensed tannins with persistent acidity and a savory, sanguine finish. October 2026 release. Almost drinkable now yet intended for long aging.
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.
