Description The Conterno Giacomo 1999 Barolo DOCG Riserva Monfortino is a wine masterpiece that encapsulates the essence of Piedmont's winemaking tradition. Originating from the historic vineyards of Monforte d'Alba, this wine is the pure expression of Nebbiolo, embodying its complexity and power. The 1999 vintage, regarded as one of the excellent harvests in Piedmont, has resulted in an extraordinary Barolo, rich in character and depth.

In the glass, it presents an intense garnet red, accented by elegant orange reflections that testify to its maturity. Its aromas are a sensory journey: notes of ripe cherry, withered rose, sweet spices, and a hint of licorice weave together in a sublime manner. With aeration, tones of tobacco and leather emerge, promising endless complexity.

On the palate, the 1999 Monfortino reveals itself to be enveloping and powerful. The well-integrated tannins provide structure and longevity, while the lively acidity maintains a balance in the sip. The finish is endless, with a persistence that leaves a mark, evoking memories of macerated red fruits and mineral notes.

Perfectly paired with rich dishes such as a meat ragù or braised beef, this reserve Barolo also serves as a wine for contemplation, to be savored slowly in the company of close friends. A wine that not only tells a story but invites you to live it, making every sip a memorable experience. A true gem of Italian winemaking history, the Conterno Giacomo 1999 Monfortino is a must-have for any collector.
