Conteisa 1996 Gaja

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (94)

The opaque purple-colored 1996 Barolo Conteisa reveals a sweet, ripe nose with an element of sur-maturite given its over-ripe cassis, melted road tar, licorice, and spice-scented bouquet. It exhibits a voluptuous texture, layers of concentrated fruit, and full body. Its tannin is largely concealed by the wine's glycerin, alcohol, and extract.

Gorgeous, pure Nebbiolo. Wonderfully aromatic with floral, plum and licorice. Full-bodied, with polished, silky tannins and a long, long, fruity finish. Better than many Barolos.
