Aldo Conterno

Poderi Aldo Conterno is located in Monforte d'Alba, in the hamlet of Bussia, in the heart of Italy's classic Barolo region. The 25-hectare vineyard, situated at an altitude of 400 meters, enjoys a predominantly south-southwest exposure. The soil at the Aldo Conterno estate consists of layers of more or less compact sand—gray-brown in color—alternating with white and bluish calcareous marl.

Aldo Conterno is in perfect harmony with his wines, bringing out their most intimate characteristics through skilled and rigorous work. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Barolo is aged in large traditional Slavonian oak barrels, while French oak barriques are used for the other wines. The wines play on the characteristics of the Nebbiolo grape variety and express a spicy bouquet that offers a crystal-clear glimpse into the unique character of this soil. This interpretation of the terroir forms the foundation of the unique identity of Poderi Aldo Conterno’s Barolos.
