Barolo, Monfortino--Vintage 1978
Giacomo Conterno, Riserva Speciale
Levels: five bottom neck or better, two very top shoulders; one tissue remains, pristine appearance
"Conterno's 1978 Monfortino remains one of the greatest Barolos ever made. If offers complex sensations of spices, cocoa, leather, licorice and menthol followed by layers of dark fruit that coat the palate with incredible persistence and length...The 1978 Monfortino is a pure joy to drink today, and like the Monprivato, its aging potential appears to be virtually limitless."
