About This Wine
Like the famous wines it produces, the Giacomo Conterno brand is long-lived: the Conterno family has a legacy in Piedmont that goes back to the early 1900s. Now managed by the fourth generation, Giacomo Conterno is known for constantly producing some of the highest quality and most age-worthy Barolos in Italy. Their first Riserva was released during the first World War and continues to be a highly sought-after wine.
Barolo’s 2004 vintage is known for producing wines with ripe red fruit character and exceptional balance – a delayed harvest allowed for a longer ripening season. The 2004 Giacomo Conterno Barolo Monfortino Riserva is no exception. Notes of blood orange, roses, tar, smoke, and strawberry can all be found, while firm but approachable tannins compliment a strong acid core. Vinous’s Antonio Galloni scored the wine 100 points, writing, “When it comes to pure finesse, the 2004 plays in a league of its own...I imagine the 2004 Monfortino will give readers an utterly spellbinding drinking experience for the next few decades.” The finish lingers for what seems like hours on the palate and leaves you wanting more.
The Final Sip: Only around 600 cases of Monfortino Riserva are produced, and then, only in the best vintages. Get your hands on a few bottles if you can – while already ethereal now, these wines have decades to go in bottle.
