    “As good as the older wines are, the 1971 Barolo Riserva Monfortino is just insanely beautiful. Still deeply colored and intense to the core, the 1971 delivers a classic Monfortino experience. Layers of dark, mineral-infused fruit flow across the palate in a deep, muscular Monfortino endowed with stunning depth. The 1971 shows why it is one of the all-time greats. This is a mind-blowing bottle.”
    Antonio Galloni, 99 points

    About Giacomo Conterno

    Hay algo casi eclesiástico en una visita a la bodega de Giacomo Conterno a los pies de Monforte d’Alba. Al cruzar sus puertas, uno atraviesa inmediatamente un umbral imaginario hacia un mundo espiritual y solemne. La bodega tiene el aire de una vasta catedral con techos elevados y espacios abiertos. Impecables barricas de roble, cada una bellamente barnizada, bordean el perímetro de la bodega como una sucesión de pequeñas capillas familiares.

    Roberto Conterno se desliza lenta y constantemente por el suelo de baldosas como si fuera un sacerdote perdido en un momento contemplativo de oración. Limpia cuidadosamente las gotas que puedan quedar en los grifos con un pañuelo blanco que lleva siempre consigo. La cata oficial de su vino se realiza con la precisión ceremonial y la intensidad religiosa de una Primera Comunión. Y, al igual que cuando termina la Misa, se siente una sutil sensación de alivio al volver a salir finalmente a la luz del sol.
