Barolo Castelletto “Vigna Pressenda” DOCG 2017

Conterno Fantino | Piemont
Az. Agr. Conterno Fantino | Via Ginestra 1 | IT 12065 Monforte d'Alba

Die sandigen Böden nördlich von Monforte d'Alba geben diesem Barolo seine ungemeine Kraft und Struktur. Im Bouquet sehr offen und ansprechend nach dunklen Kirschen und Himbeeren, dazu Noten von Minze, Zedernholz, Rosenblättern und Salbei. Am Gaumen dann sehr lebhaft und expressiv, mit tiefer Schönheit, nahtlos konturiert, mit spektakulärer Resonanz. Ein fabelhafter Wein aus sehr gutem Jahrgang, klassisch und exotisch zugleich.

"The 2017 Barolo Castelletto Vigna Pressenda is a gorgeous, exotic wine. Rose petal, orange peel, cinnamon, cedar and red berry fruit all open in a beautifully layered, super-expressive Barolo from Conterno-Fantino. Beams of Castelletto tannin extend the finish while lending a real feeling of vibrancy throughout. The balance of purity and structure is compelling." Vinous

"This wine boasts a very etched and linear quality that defines both the bouquet and the mouthfeel. The Conterno Fantino 2017 Barolo Castelletto Vigna Pressenda starts in little clicks with wild berry, cassis, dark plum, spice and tar. Those intervals add up quickly to form a greater sense of length and endurance that this wine, made with fruit from silty soils mixed with sand and clay, delivers in both the good years and the more difficult ones alike. Light touches of smoke and spice give lift to the finish." Robert Parker

"This is very structured with fantastic tannins that frame the wine. Dark fruit with ripe strawberries, as well as wet earth and dried black truffles. Full and chewy. Tight finish. Needs four or five years to open." James Suckling
