Lot 164 Details
GIACOMO CONTERNO BAROLO RISERVA MONFORTINO 2000

Piedmont.
u. bn. scraped label.

Conterno’s 2000 Barolo Riserva Monfortino gives an impression of accessibility only because it is so open relative to some of the surrounding vintages of this great, legendary Barolo. The 2000 has tons of fruit backed up with considerable tannic heft. With time in the glass sweet, balsamic notes make an appearance, but this is one of the few 2000s that needs considerable cellaring to show all of its cards. May 2011 Drink to 2040 WA 97

1 bt.    per lot $1,200 - $1,400

Realised: $1,716
