Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
“The 2006 Langhe Nebbiolo Il Favot is a serious wine with superb concentration and fine balance. This firm, vibrant Nebbiolo has opulent, refined tannins that make it enjoyable 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 very fine effort by Aldo Conterno.” (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate October 2009)

Review 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’s better, though not exactly good. Still, it’s a major letdown considering the price.
