Giacomo Conterno Nebbiolo d'Alba Vigna Arione 2022
Nebbiolo from the vineyard Roberto Conterno acquired in 2015—the newest jewel in Giacomo Conterno's crown. Arione sits on primarily calcareous soils with southern exposure in Serralunga d'Alba. While the Barolo from this site gets the headlines, this Nebbiolo d'Alba offers a more immediate window into the terroir at a fraction of the price. Long maturation in large oak barrels gives elegance and complexity. Multilayered, generous, and structured—a serious Nebbiolo from one of Italy's greatest estates.
