Last Tasted 5/921971 is one of the great vintages for Piedmont and for Giovanni Conterno. This Reserva selection has thrown considerable sediment, but the color is still a deep garnet/ruby/purple. The intense fragrance of the bouquet reveals classic Barolo aromas of tar, roasted black-cherries, and earthy, truffle notes. This young, powerful wine continues to exhibit gorgeous levels of rich, sweet Nebbiolo fruit buttressed by high acidity and mouthsearing tannins. While approachable now, it is still unevolved. Unlike many of Conterno's Barolos, there is no evidence of volatile acidity, and at age 21 this wine is set for another 10-20 years of cellaring.
