Tasting note

Red cherry, rose petal, and tar aromas. Structured palate with firm tannins, balanced acidity, and ageing potential. From the distinctive 2018 Barolo vintage.

In the press

95/100 The Conterno Fantino 2018 Barolo Castelletto Vigna Pressenda is dense and tight, especially at this early phase in its life. This wine promises good things to those who wait, and it shows both the freshness and the structure to go the long haul. I love the sharp and extremely focused personality of Vigna Pressenda. Dark fruit and rose are backed by etched mineral and sensations of iron ore. This wine is a true beauty. Drink 2024-2044

With full flavoured red meat such as beef, lamb or game. Excellent with soft, veiny blue cheese.
