Conterno Fantino Barolo Ginestra Vigna del Gris 2017
Barolo gentile and elegant, obtained from Nebbiolo grapes from the vineyard "Vineyard of Gris" in the Ginestra region, in Monforte d'Alba. With an intense ruby red color tending towards garnet, it has a clear and elegant bouquet of ripe red fruit, blackberries and raspberries on the nose, on a background of spices, dark chocolate, liquorice, and coffee. With a warm, intense and enveloping taste, of great structure, persistent, it goes perfectly with roast or stewed red meats, game and aged cheeses.

Colour

Clear ruby with garnet reflections.

Bouquet

Intense smell of dark spices with fruity cherry tone in spirit well integrated with withered floral notes and undergrowth perceptions. Balsamic notes and aromatic herbs in closing.

Flavour

The sip is imposing, with noble tannins, excellent progression and long is the ending that closes with wide mineral perceptions.

Pairing

Game
Cheese
