It is rare among the individualistic personalities that exist in the Langhe Hills to find two young winemakers with such a strong willingness to work together. In 1982, at the tender age of 18, Claudio Conterno and family partnered with Guido Fantino (ex- cellar master at Prunotto and another young rising star) to form the Conterno-Fantino estate. The nucleus of their efforts was cru Ginestra, which grew to include Vigna del Gris located on the same hilltop in the commune of Monforte d’Alba (known for austere, structured Barolos). Early ambitions incorporated the traditional approach set by their parents. But in 1985 the duo decided to experiment with a Nebbiolo/Barbera blend in what is now the legendary Super Piemonte, Monprà, which included the use of barrique. In 1994 they built a state-of- the-art winery in the Bricco Bastia area where they brought innovation and technology to the Nebbiolo vines they had mastered. The pair remains at the forefront of advancement in quality winemaking, and they firmly believe that vigilant viticultural practices are the essence of great wine.
