Sourced from a prized parcel of old-vine Nebbiolo planted in 1965, this vineyard sits at a high altitude of 360 to 380 meters with a perfect south-facing exposure. Unlike the lighter sandy soils of neighboring sites, the terroir here is defined by a dense, compact matrix of white tuffaceous marl, heavy clay, and limestone, forcing the ancient roots deep into the bedrock. Fabio Fantino pursues a meticulous blueprint of organic farming and modern precision in the cellar: the fruit undergoes a high-tech maceration in horizontal rotary fermenters to extract deep color and phenolic complexity, followed by a patient 24-month maturation in toasted French oak barriques. This produces a monolithic, incredibly concentrated Barolo built for absolute longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eIn the glass, it reveals a deep, brooding garnet-ruby hue with a dense core, instantly unleashing a powerful, aristocratic bouquet. The nose opens with an explosive wave of macerated black cherries, dark plums, and licorice, layered intricately with intense notes of tar, dark tobacco leaf, crushed iron, and exotic espresso spice. On the palate, the wine delivers a masterclass in raw power, concentration, and structural density. A massive, deeply savory core of dark bramble fruit is framed by an ironclad, architectural network of broad, chalky tannins and a vibrant line of mineral acidity. The heavy clay-limestone soils impart a profound, deeply tactile weight and a distinct graphite-driven tension that commands the palate. It finishes with an interminable, regal crescendo, leaving a lingering trail of black truffles, leather, and a clean, mouth-coating grip. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Conterno Fantino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47315038896293,"sku":"4898801","price":260.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/2597\/2133\/files\/BaroloVignaPedMosconi.jpg?v=1780548070"},{"product_id":"conterno-fantino-barolo-vigna-del-gris-ginestra-2017","title":"Conterno Fantino Barolo Vigna del Gris Ginestra 2017","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"0\"\u003eConterno Fantino Barolo 'Vigna del Gris' is a breathtaking, highly sophisticated expression of Nebbiolo that captures a remarkably elegant and perfumed side of the legendary Ginestra cru.
