Paolo Conterno Ginestra Barolo 2009

About this product

TASTING NOTE : The 2006 Barolo Ginestra shows wonderful thrust in a bright , vibrant expression of this site . Flowers , menthol , red fruits and spices sit on a wiry , energetic frame as this beautifully balanced Barolo opens up in the glass . The 2006 Ginestra seems to be holding quite a bit of its potential in check , but it is already highly appealing , even if the tannins naturally require a few years in bottle to soften . Anticipated maturity : 2016 - 2026 . Score : 93 ( Antonio Galloni , erobertparker . com , Dec . 2010 )
