A landmark release from one of Barolo's most prestigious producers, representing the first official vintage of this wine since Roberto Conterno acquired the Arione vineyard in 2015. It is widely celebrated for its power and deep structure, characteristic of its Serralunga d'Alba terroir. 

Aromas: Notable notes of blackberry, dark cherry, and wild raspberry are layered with earthy undertones of tar, iron, mineral, and sweet spices.

Structure: It is a full-bodied wine with intense, "fine-grained" tannins and vibrant acidity, offering a "phenomenally long" and austere finish.

Giacomo Conterno Description

Traditional Pairings: Following the local traditions of the Langhe region is the most classic way to enjoy this wine: 
Brasato al Barolo: Beef slow-cooked in Barolo wine until tender. The richness of the meat and the wine-based sauce perfectly softens the bottle's high tannins.

Tajarin with White Truffles: This delicate, egg-heavy pasta served with butter and fresh Alba white truffle shavings echoes the wine's earthy and floral aromatics.

Agnolotti del Plin: Small, hand-pinched pasta typically filled with roasted meats (veal, pork, or rabbit) and served with a simple meat jus or butter and sage.

Battuta di Fassona: Hand-chopped raw Piedmontese beef seasoned simply with olive oil and salt, allowing the wine’s fruit density to shine.
