2013 Barolo, Diego Conterno


2013 Barolo, Diego Conterno
This has put on some weight and taken some steps towards maturity, since last tasted in 2017 - Barolista: Eight Bottles Of Barolo. The nose is round and deep with notes of dried strawberries, asphalt, veal stock and dried flowers. Very, very good.
The taste is forward and fine with silky tannins and notes of mushrooms, roses, tobacco and dried strawberries. Long and fine. For drinking now and the coming 10+ years. Held very well over three days in a open bottle.
91p   (tasted 2024/06)
