Paolo Conterno "A Mont" Langhe Nebbiolo 2019 - 375ml

The Cappellano estate claims to have essentially invented Chinato; “benchmark” is the word that comes to mind. The recipe is top secret. Seductively complex, with hints of mint, cloves, musk, and generous dark fruits.

Ferrando’s black label is only released in the best vintages, and sourced from the best parcels. Something of a cult classic, the wine can and should be set down as long as any great Barolo. Deeply concentrated fruit, tobacco, and even mint make appearanc

Grown on volcanic soils in the northern Piedmont DOC of Coste della Sesia. Neighboring Gattinara and Carema, these higher altitude, cooler climate locals produce much softer, more feminine expressions of Nebbiolo. Floral and bright, but deep with notes of
