Good To Know: Back in 1982, the two friends Claudio Conterno and Guido Fantino founded Azienda Agricola Conterno Fantino. Now, the company is environmentally sustainable, preserving the biodiversity and care of the land which yields a vineyard which is organically cultivated as certified by CCPB. Their goal is to reduce the negative environmental impact and use of solar panels and geothermal system. The winery also uses a wetland which is used for wastewater purification. Every part is important, from cultivation to production.
The 2020 Conterno Fantino Barolo Ginestra "Vigna del Gris" is a single-vineyard Barolo crafted from organically farmed Nebbiolo vines in the Ginestra cru of Monforte d’Alba, planted in 1978 and 2000. Grown at 300–320 meters on a mix of sandy, silt, and clay soils, the grapes are hand-harvested in mid-October, then fermented and macerated for 12–15 days in stainless steel before aging in French oak. The wine offers complex aromas of rose petals, violet, cherry, raspberry, balsam, and star anise, with hints of cinnamon and espresso. On the palate, it is structured yet elegant, with polished tannins, bright acidity, and a long, mineral-laced finish. Built for aging, it promises excellent cellaring potential well into the 2040s.
