The end of a special dinner with raw meat, truffles and ravioli del plin. This Barolo is perfectly balanced and round. — 3 years ago

Dark tawny color. Powerful nose. Notes of black plum, tea, roses, black earth and some anise. Balanced. Rounded out over 8 hours. In a great zone right now. Everything you want in a nicely aged Barolo. Give it its needed air. — 7 years ago

Very light color almost like a rose. Spectacular aromas of blackberries, Kirsch, lemon zest. Tea leaves on the back palate. Very unique none of the leather one usually gets in Barolo's. — 10 years ago

On the nose, this is bright blackberry, raspberry, and foreboding char... On the palate, this becomes all cranberry to me... Concentrated... Juicy... Acidic... Refreshing... Leather... Tannins are just carpet-level... Bright all the way theough a long finish... Cocoa? I love a great Barbera and I chose this wine as a pairing for a Carbonara pasta dish I was making... I thought this was an outstanding pairing nicely cutting through the oiliness of the dish, playing well with the egg, and honestly the length here made it a great sipper between tastes of the pasta. Loved it. — a year ago

Required almost 2 hours of decanting. It was quite the experience because this Barolo continued to evolve and provide new flavours throughout the night. Plums, figs, berries, strawberries, raspberries, followed by vanilla, oak, humidor notes, earth, mild herbaceousness, truffles. Tannins are big, chewy but soft and persist for a long time. It’s a complex wine that provides gifts of new flavours that are very well integrated. — 7 years ago

GL tasting 2/1/17 Conterno Fantino. Blend of Barbera and Nebbiolo half each. Vivified separately. Dark red fruit of former with tannin of latter. Darker color vs lighter. Interesting nose of fruit and earth carries through to palate and finish. $48. — 9 years ago
