Diego Conterno Le Coste di monforte Barolo Nebbiolo 2018

$65

A rising star in the southern reaches of the Barolo zone, Diego Conterno and his son, Stefano, craft elegant, lively Nebbiolo wines in Monforte d’Alba. A new Barolo wine, ‘Le Coste di Monforte’ is an especially cool site that sits at serious altitude at the furthest reaches of the Barolo zone, near Monforte d’Alba. Cool and spiced, with pronounced yet ripe tannins and a ton of floral nuance, ‘Le Coste’ is a thrilling new addition to the family’s already stellar lineup of Nebbiolo wines.

The 2018 Barolo Le Coste di Monforte is a gentle, surprisingly open-knit wine from a site where Barolos tend to show quite a bit more muscle. Then again, this is 2018. Effusive floral and spice aromatics meld into a core of sweet red-fleshed fruit. Orange peel, cinnamon and rose petal lift the bright, vibrant finish very nicely. The 2018 is impeccably done. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, October 2022)
