Giacomo Conterno
Cascina Francia Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
1997 Giacomo Conterno 'Cascina Francia' : Alluring on the nose with floral notes and ripe dark red fruit.. Great color and notable concentration with resolved tannins and wonderful acid.. I absolutely loved. #Barolo #Nebbiolo #Marta

Out of mag. Great wine. A little cloudy due to bottom of the bottle for my 3oz pour but still so beautiful.

Balance with fruit and fresh acid. Wonderful wine. Will put some in my cellar for special occasions.
