This 2009 Barolo Riserva from Poderi Aldo Conterno, a renowned producer from the Bussia cru, promises an exceptional aromatic and palatal experience. Expect intense and complex aromas of dried red fruits like cherry and cranberry, evolving into sophisticated tertiary notes of tar, licorice, rose petals, and earthy forest floor, complemented by hints of tobacco and leather. On the palate, it will be full-bodied and powerful, showcasing the typical high acidity and firm, well-integrated tannins of Nebbiolo from Monforte d’Alba. The fruit will be concentrated and rich, balanced by savory spice and mineral undertones, leading to an incredibly long, elegant, and persistent finish.
