2023 Conterno Fantino Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino

92 Points John Caro
In stock
A "hidden gem" of Piedmont that hits the palate well above its class. It is sourced among the younger vines of this fine estate. But that seems to be an advantage in the way it is able to balance mineral freshness with an abundant and youthful fruit expression. A leader in a category that always offers great value, this Langhe Nebbiolo is a must-try!

Its Origins

Azienda Agricola Conterno Fantino was established in 1982 by Guido Fantino and Claudio Conterno. The state-of-the art winery is located on top of a hill overlooking the old village of Montforte d'Alba, enjoying an extraordinary view stretching out around the arc of Alps. Conterno Fantino's range comprises a Barolo DOCG from Sori Ginestra, and several DOC wines from Langhe, Barbera d'Alba, Dolcetto d' Alba and a mono-varietal wine (Chardonnay). The style of their Barolo is modern, showing rich aromas and flavours, lush, soft texture and well-rounded tannins.

What The Critics Say

91/100 Vinous, Antonio Gallon

“The 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino will give many Barolos and Barbarescos a run for their money. It emerges from a collection of sites in Monforte and spent a brief nine months in small-format wood. Kirsch, cinnamon, mint and rose petal are beautifully lifted. A kiss of French oak adds just a touch of raciness without overpowering the wine at all." Drink 2024 - 2029
