Good To Know: Highly regarded as one of the greatest Barolo producers in Piedmont, the late Aldo Conterno (who passed away recently in 2012) has produced highly sought after and critically acclaimed wines during his lifetime. Apart from his well decorated career in winemaking, Aldo Conterno is also considered to be a Barolo modernist especially when compared alongside his brother Giovanni who is geared towards the tradional style of the Giacommo Conterno estate.

Aldo Conterno Bussia Cicala has an age that averages 40-45 years. Mainly the variety of Nebbiolo is Lampia and rootstock is Rupestris du Lot. “Cicala” means balm-cricket when directly translated. This wine is decanted several times before transferring to oak casks where aging and refining takes place.

The 2017 vintage has a red color with transparent and a bit of rusty edge. The bouquet at the nose smells of leather, vanilla bean, sweet rose petal perfume, plum/prune and citrus peel. The palate is tight, fresh and high-acid, with well-delineated flavors of leather/rawhide, sour red cherry and cherry skin and dry anise and oregano notions.

Poderi Aldo Conterno was founded in 1969 when Aldo Conterno purchased the Favot estate with along with its prized Bussia holdings. Eight years prior to his purchase, he had managed Giacomo Conterno together with his brother, Giovanni, but left to carve his own path with a more modern approach to his wines.Today, the estate is managed and led by his three sons: Franco, Stefano and Giacomo.
