WINE DESCRIPTION

Diego Conterno Barolo is a premium wine produced by the renowned winemaker Diego Conterno. This wine is made from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Barolo appellation, which is known for its unique terroir and ideal growing conditions. The vineyards are situated on steep hillsides with varying exposures, which contribute to the complexity and depth of the wine. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including long maceration and aging in oak barrels, resulting in a wine with intense aromas of red fruit, spices, and floral notes. The wine is full-bodied with firm tannins and a long finish, making it a perfect match for hearty meat dishes and aged cheeses.
