Poderi Aldo Conterno Barolo Nebbiolo 2004
Aldo Conterno's 2004 Barolo is simply beautiful. A medium red, it presents a feminine expression of Nebbiolo in its perfumed, spiced red raspberries and cherries. This is a soft, accessible Barolo ideal for near and mid-term drinking that fully captures the essence of this great vintage. Beginning with the 2004 vintage, this wine includes fruit from 15-year-old vines in Colonnello, a vineyard with sandier soils that lies on the border with Barolo. In the past this fruit was used for the Langhe Favot but now it makes up about 30% of the blend for the Barolo. As a result this bottling now carries the Barolo designation rather than the Barolo Bussia name which was used for previous vintages. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2019. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Tannins alive. Acidic. Flavors hang on the front of the tongue.

Nice lingering "sweetness factor" to the fruit which lingers and you savor. Enjoyable. Starting to turn brick red. Drink now.

Overripe peach, dried dark cherry, shaved dark chocolate on the nose. Palate doesn't live up to the nose. Tart cranberry/cheery on the palate.

The hit of our wine club dinner! Beautiful structure. Not too heavy. Great compliment to lamb osso buco and risotto.

Red fruit, fall leaves, sweet and not showing a lot of structure at first, though incredibly fine tannin comes out with air. It is very easy to drink.

Stunning perfumed aromatics. Cherry, roses, tar, fig and balsamic. Wonderful acidity and integrated tannins. Conterno all day long.
