Product Notes

Paolo Conterno Barolo Riva del Bric is a stunning Italian wine with profound depth and character. The wine presents a brilliant ruby red colour with garnet reflections. On the nose, lush scents of spice, cherry and rose blooms are dominant. In the palate, this concoction tempts with robust flavours of dark fruits, leather, and earth, balanced by subtler undercurrents of vanilla and cedar. This silky, full-bodied wine delivers velvety tannins and an impressive persistent finish. This refined Barolo, with its elegance and vibrancy, is a true testament to the acclaimed winemaking skills of the Conterno family. Highly recommended for red wine enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes

Typical garnet red. Bouquet packed with floral and fruity aromas. Elegant, robust body, nicely soft on the finish; showing hints of cherries and wild berries.
