Giacomo Conterno's Barolo Riserva Monfortino 2014 is a masterpiece from Piedmont. Made from Nebbiolo grapes, it fascinates with an intense garnet color and ethereal aromas of dried rose, truffle, and licorice. On the palate, it is powerful, elegant, and endlessly persistent. An age-worthy wine, perfect with red meats, game, and aged cheeses, served at 18-20°C in a large glass.
