"A truly elegant vintage!"

"One of the best Barolos of the vintage, this marvel opens with aromas of rose, wild berries, forest floor, and new leather. Superb and simply delicious, the full-bodied palate is bursting with flavor and finesse, featuring notes of crushed raspberry, ripe red cherry, cake spices, and licorice, all supported by firm, silky tannins. Fresh acidity maintains the balance. While it’s already fantastic, it also shows great aging potential. Best enjoyed between 2024 and 2038.” (Wine Enthusiast 2022).

About the wine:

The 2018 Barolo Conca is dense and beautifully intense, with notes of blackcurrant, tart cherry, wild rose, and blue lilac. The wine’s internal structure is refined and delicate, with subtle hints of spice, licorice, and toast on the finish. The Barolo Conca displays great elegance and a long, refined finish.

One of the best Barolos of the vintage, this marvel opens with aromas of rose, wild berries, forest floor, and new leather. Superb and simply delicious, the full-bodied palate is bursting with flavor and finesse, featuring notes of crushed raspberry, ripe red cherry, baking spices, and licorice, all supported by firm, silky tannins. Fresh acidity maintains the balance. While it’s already fantastic, it also shows great aging potential. Best enjoyed between 2024 and 2038.

Rated winery (2022 guide) Recommended

About the wine:

Aromas of dried cherries with some spices and a hint of toasted orange peel. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, with a silky texture and an almost creamy mouthfeel. An intense and flavorful finish. The very fine tannins develop slightly toward the end. The overall structure is lighter this year, but there is no lack of intensity or concentration. Best enjoyed starting in 2024.
