Conterno Fantino, Barolo Sori Ginestra other_regions earthy finish

earthy finish

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color

The refined yet tautly muscled flavors possess good detail and plenty of punch before culminating in a dusty and mouth coating finish of grand cru depth and persistence

Best from 2020 through 2030

Conterno Fantino, Barolo Sori Ginestra other_regions earthy finishConterno Fantino's 1999 Barolo Sor Ginestra is quite a bit richer and deeper than the Vigna del Gris, as it always is. Leather, tobacco, menthol, licorice and savory herbs are some of the many notes that flow through to the massive, tannic finish. With time in the glass the 1999 softens a bit, but the tannins of the year and the 100% new French oak barrels will always remain. Antonio Galloni
