The Conterno Fantino 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino reveals medium-rich concentration with primary fruits that touch the darker side of the Nebbiolo spectrum. Notes of blackberry and wild plum are softened by oak, tarry spice and toasted cinnamon. The wine deserves a bigger drinking window, probably taking it up to the 10-year mark. Production is 38,000 bottles.

Crushed red berry fruit, cedar, tobacco, spice, mint and dried flowers. This lithe, elegant Langhe Nebbiolo has quite a bit to offer. It's a lovely entry-level offering, especially in this vintage.

This really excellent entry-level wine has a stunning wild herb and berry intensity. A real terroir wine with an impressive structure on the crisp, medium-bodied palate.

Rijpe mandarijn, perzikpartje, rozijntje met een zetje yuzu. Zet wat breder in, vertunnelt zich en eindigt puntje precies in een fijn-droge afdronk waarin we nog een spoortje roze grapefruit treffen.

Sleek and racy, but with plenty of wild herb and white currant character, this is a vibrant and expressive dry riesling with very good harmony for just 11.5% alcohol. Impressive length.
