Poderi Aldo Conterno Colonnello Barolo 2021

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 spice and mineral add complexity. Best from 2030 through 2050.
