Why shop with us?
Paolo Conterno Barolo Ginestra 2021 is a classic single-vineyard Barolo that showcases Nebbiolo at its most refined and expressive. Grown in the renowned Ginestra cru in Piedmont, it combines depth, precision, and the kind of structure that has made Barolo one of Italy’s most celebrated wines.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a brilliant garnet hue with the lighter rim characteristic of Nebbiolo. The bouquet is poised and layered, with aromas of red cherry, rose petals, dried herbs, licorice, and subtle earthy spice.
On the palate, expect a firm but elegant frame, with vivid acidity, refined tannins, and flavors of sour cherry, cranberry, truffle, and mineral notes. The finish is long and savory, with the structure to reward cellaring; this is a wine that can evolve beautifully over many years.
Production
The Ginestra cru is one of Monforte d'Alba’s most respected sites, known for its warm exposure and calcareous marl soils that help Nebbiolo achieve power and aromatic complexity. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand to preserve fruit integrity, then vinified with traditional care to balance extraction with finesse, followed by maturation in oak to soften the tannins and build complexity.
Food & Serving
This Barolo is a natural match for rich, savory dishes such as braised beef, veal shank, wild mushroom risotto, truffle pasta, or aged cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and decant for at least 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromas and structure to खुल?

Conterno Paolo is a respected family producer in Barolo, closely associated with traditional winemaking and the expressiveness of Monforte d'Alba.
