Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
“The 2006 Langhe Nebbiolo Il Favot is a serious wine with superb concentration and beautiful balance. This firm, vibrant Nebbiolo has opulent, refined tannins that make it enjoyable right now, but enthusiasts who prefer more aromatic nuance and complexity will want to cell it for a few years. The purity of the fruit is remarkable. A truly fine effort by Aldo Conterno.” (Robert Parker – Wine Advocate, October 2009)

Review and comment by Mr. YOHANN A. Posted on 12/07/2012
It had a nice aroma when first opened, but was a huge disappointment on the palate—it’s harsh. After an hour, it was better, though not good by any means. Still, it’s a major disappointment considering the purchase price.
