Paolo Conterno A Mont Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 750ml

Paolo Conterno's "A Mont" Langhe Nebbiolo is a red wine from Piedmont, Italy, produced from the Nebbiolo grape. It exhibits a bright garnet red color and a nose with floral and fruity notes of roses and berries. The wine is described as mouth-filling, elegant, and structured, with a complex, slightly spicy flavor profile that lingers on the palate. 

This wine comes from 20-year-old vines grown in the historical enclave of the Ginestra Grand Cru. It has an elegant, but robust body making it the perfect pairing with red meats and game. Aged for 3 years in French oak barrels.

Tasting notes: bright garnet red colour; flowery nose, showing roses and fruity sensations. Mouth-filling and elegantly-structured; round with complex, slightly spicy flavors lingering nicely on the palate.

Pairings: best with pasta dishes such as “tagliolini” with meat sauce, main courses of meat served with sauces, and medium-mature cheeses.

92 Points - James Suckling

Spiced dark cherries, licorice, dark chocolate and dried orange peel on the nose. The medium- to full-bodied palate offers juicy dark fruit nicely framed with firm, lightly chewy tannins and a dry, earthy finish. Drinkable now, but can hold.
