Saturday, November 18, 2023 - Nebbiolos, white truffles, Volume VIII (Chicago, IL): Double decanted at 11am. From this era, I've always been a little wary of the Conterno wines, because they can often be a bit dried out or weird, but this bottle was none of that. Very chewy and backwards, with a riper (and far blacker) profile than the Giacosa on the palate. Dense and stern with plenty of tannins still, even if this is already reasonably approachable.
