    (Giacomo Conterno Barolo) Bricked medium red color with clear meniscus; deer jus, truffle, mushroom nose; mature, earthy, sweet, autumnal, dried berry palate with depth and grip, will go 20-25 more years; long finish 94+ pts.

Rockss and Fruit

    (Giacomo Conterno Barolo) Nose of crushed hot rocks, some black truffles, sour cherry, mineral and fresh wet dirt. Great nose with a definite charred burnt element to it that adds to the complexity. Lush witn an amazing level of sweet fruit and crazy ripeness. Really explosive and complex with gorgeous inner mouth perfume. Still tannic but the tannins are ripe and lush. Long finish. This is gorgeous. Wonderful texture. This is a wow wine and will last 25-35 more years.
