Heavy tannins yes but its clear that this is one of the finest wines to come from Elena Fucci. If you're a fan of Titolo, this will likely be the best expression of it for years to come. Wait 5-7 years and be prepared to be amazed.

Others have beautifully addressed the tasting aspects and I agree. It lives up to the hype. In this case, it was a stellar vintage and the final wine made by an exceptional man who had brought greatness back to Chateau Margaux. Add a commemorative bottling and the market gets frothy. Regardless, this wine will rank with the very greatest to ever come out of this estate.

2010 Giacomo Conterno Barolo Riserva Monfortino

Perfection, even at this relatively young stage. Has decades ahead of it and will stand along with some of the best Monfortino vintages ever.
