Earth driven wine with loads of dried tobacco aromas, dried rose petal, anise seed and black truffle. Kirsch liquor and cherry pit with vibrant tannins and acidly. Long persistent finish that lingers. — a month ago
It's just an absolute stunner. What a beautiful Nebbiolo. In London, we enjoyed this beauty at a beautiful restaurant where we enjoyed it mainly with a gnocchi and pork chop. Superb 👌🏽 — 3 months ago
This boy ready to drink! (Yes you could age it another freaking 20, but I lean more towards the fresher fun side of barolo.) Where as Mascarello is delicate and ethereal , Conterno is a decisive power house. And at the right moment can be sublime and uniquely aromatic. High toned with structured tannins it was a perfect wine for braised lamb necks and olives. Even Madi was blown away as the wine opened up and offered some serious cherry and velvety tar. And then there was the finish. Jesus. Lasting an eternity. Making you want another sip.

Popped and poured. The 2011 Barbera d’Alba pours a deep, garnet (with some purple) color with a near opaque core. Slightly hazy. No signs of particles or gas. Medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous. Boysenberries , mulberries, dark cherry, braised beef (no cap), oiled leather, dried leaf tobacco, organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry; medium tannins and medium+ acid. Alcohol is medium+. Confirming the notes from the nose. This is really tasty right now. While I don’t think this is going to fall off a cliff soon, I also don’t think there is any reason to hold any longer. Drink now and enjoy while the fruits are still nicely balanced with the secondary characteristics. — 7 months ago
