Poderi Aldo Conterno
Barolo Nebbiolo
Magnificent showing this evening; the sturdy '06 is finally coming into its own, showing fine-tuned, grainy and sweet tannins, framing the lush red berries and forest floor aromas/flavors. Great Burgundy profile but of course providing more grip, yet sharing a similar acidic structure. This will easily cruise another 15+ years. Bravo!
