Additionally, the region produces other notable wines, including Barbera d'Alba, Dolcetto d'Alba, and Gavi. These wines exhibit unique characteristics that reflect the local terroir and grape varieties.
Piedmont's fine wines are a true expression of artistry and tradition, showcasing the region's commitment to excellence.

Wine Advocate (96)The 2013 Barolo Ginestra Vigna Sorì Ginestra shows a whole other level of fiber and textural richness. This is a stunning wine from thicker soils that deliver more structure, firmness and overall depth. With that superiore richness, the wine is also endowed with balanced acidity, plump primary fruit and an elegant touch of balsam or menthol herb on the finish. This drives the finish forward for a few long and glorious minutes. Dig deeper still, and you find a sweet note of chocolate hazelnut. |

Vinous (94)The 2010 Barolo Vigna del Gris is beautiful, layered and expressive. Sweet tobacco, mint, licorice, crushed flowers and plums meld together in a supple, gracious wine for the year. Sweet rose petals and mint add an attractive upper register of trademark aromatics and perfume as the wine opens up in the glass. The 2010 remains dense and compact, but it is impossible to miss that the tannins here are more refined than has typically been the case with the Gris in the past, which is probably the result of vines getting older. The 2010 needs time to unwind, but it is quite pretty and full of potential. Conterno-Fantino gave the 2010 a year in 100% new French oak, followed by a year in a combination of equal parts barrique and cask. |

Hand-harvested in 2023, the Dolcetto grapes undergo meticulous fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, preserving their fresh fruit aromas and natural acidity. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 10 months in French oak barrels, imparting subtle layers of spice and complexity without overshadowing its inherent elegance.

Wine Advocate (96)Wow, compliments to Conterno Fantino. The newest release of their organic Chardonnay—from a terribly challenging vintage nonetheless—hits it out of the ballpark. The 2023 Langhe Chardonnay Bastía is so exciting to drink thanks to that deftly balanced hint of reduction that adds so much energy and vitality to the wine. This Chardonnay is nervous and raring to go, like a racehorse at the starting line. I love the tension and the medium-plus mouthfeel that adds substance and staying power. Flint, struck match and smoke cede to preserved lemon and spicy saffron. I'm seeing more Italian Chardonnays made in this reductive manner, and I'm falling in love with the grape all over again. |
