Barolo

1967 Barolo Red Blend

The Poderi Aldo Conterno Barolo from the iconic 1967 vintage is a magnificent expression of the Barolo region, showcasing the depth and richness that this esteemed area is known for. In the glass, it displays a deep red hue, hinting at the wine's maturity and complexity. The body is full, providing a robust mouthfeel that balances beautifully with its high acidity, making each sip vibrant and lively. The fruit intensity is pronounced, delivering notes of dark cherry and plum, which are elegantly intertwined with layers of earthy undertones and subtle spice. The tannins are notable yet refined, contributing to the wine's structure and allowing for a graceful aging process. This Barolo, decidedly dry, embodies the trademark elegance and power that makes it a remarkable choice for connoisseurs and collectors alike.

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
