Aldo Conterno Barolo Colonnello 2008

WineSaint
Dense cherry and rose petal aromatics build with impressive intensity. The palate shows serious grip and concentration, a departure from Colonnello's typically graceful style. Mineral-driven finish carries notes of tar, tobacco and dried herbs. This vintage demands patience. The tannins are formidable but beautifully integrated.
