Barolo Colonnello Aldo Conterno 2021 (750ML)

98 Points, Aldo Fiordelli, JamesSuckling.com: "A restrained and elegant wine with aromas of citrus, leaves, dried cherries, orange peel and an enticing whiff of peppermint. The palate is graceful despite a full body, tense acidity and firm, muscular yet velvety tannins, but everything is well packed, poised and balanced. Long, lavish and bracing aftertaste. Try from 2027." 04/25

98 Points, Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator: "The cherry, blackberry and violet flavors are effusive, while the structure lends a dense matrix of tannins and bright acidity. Overall, this is taut and reserved, yet with a racy feel and marvelous length. Flashes of tar, black pepper and mineral add complexity. Best from 2030 through 2050. 435 cases made, 75 cases imported." 04/26
