Giacomo Conterno Barolo Riserva Monfortino 1988
94/100 vinous.com
"We concluded the Conterno portion of the tasting with four vintages of Monfortino, which again offered something for everyone. The 1997 is irresistible today, as is the 1990, but it is perhaps the 1988 that offers the most complete Monfortino experience today. 1997 Barolo Riserva Monfortino?Rich ruby. Unbelievable, seductive nose of roses, sweet fruit and minerals that recalls the legendary 1982. The 1997 is massive and dense on the palate, yet penetrating, with waves of sweet dark fruit and cocoa that coat the palate seamlessly, with great structure and length underneath. A spectacular, riveting effort that is impossible to resist today."
