Barolo Monfortino Riserva--Vintage 1999
G. Conterno
In original wooden case
Tasting Note: "The 1999 Monfortino Riserva from Conterno is a triumph. Just barely beginning to open now, the wine shows a dense cloud of aromas that begin with a ripe cherry fruit and then vary from floral notes to toasty and savory, with hints of leather, and white truffle thrown in. On the palate there is a rich, supple texture, magnificent extract and tannins that are firm without being astringent or hard. The wine has a penetrating finish V this will live for decades."
