Needed more time to open, but more than generous in flavor for Cicala.

Oh Conterno…how I am grateful for thee and thou still in my “cellar.” Every time I drink this is reminds me to hunt for more aged Conterno. An expensive reminder.

Wow this is sexy. Dried rose petals, tar, tobacco and black cherries on the nose. Palate is pure silk - oodles of black cherries, tar and sweetness. Only knock is that the alcohol level is a little on the high side otherwise nearly a perfect barolo. This baby has decades ahead of it and I bet it will shine even more
