Description

2021 Giacomo Conterno Barolo Arione [V97+][JS97][JD97][WA94]Producer: Giacomo Conterno Region: Barolo, Piedmont, Italy Varietal: Nebbiolo Year: 2021 Vinous, 97+ Points "The 2021 Barolo Arione is a wine of exquisite finesse and elegance. The bouquet alone is immediately arresting. Then again, that is such an Arione signature. Sage, rose petal, mint, orange peel and dried flowers begin to emerge over time. Nearly seamless tannins and exceptional balance add to its total allure, while strong floral and savory

espresso and licorice flavors that build brooding tension toward zesty tannins

Harlan Pinot Noir

There is no added sugar

licorice and dark baking spice and a hint of tobacco set against firm but well integrated tannins

"We don’t do things like other gin makers

dry can be up to 9 gramms of residual sugar

and enough tannins to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age
