Barolo Cascina Francia 2010 - Giacomo Conterno (OWC, 1.5 L)

Tasting notes

"The 2010 Barbera d’Alba Cascina Francia is dark and brooding in this vintage. Melted road tar, incense and black fruit flesh out on this intense, powerful Barbera. The Cascina Francia can sometimes offer plenty of early appeal, but not in 2010. This is a wine that needs time. A fleshy, creamy finish backed up by serious structure suggests the best is still several years away at a minimum. The Cascina Francia is slightly rounder in style, while the Ceretta is a decidedly more linear, focused Barbera. In 2010, the Cascina Francia was picked first.  (...)."

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

Giovanni Conterno was the son of Giacomo Contero, who was born in 1895 and after whom the estate is named. Giacomo had been producing and bottling Monfortino since the 1920s.

Cascina Francia, the source of all the grapes for Monfortino, lies at up to 450 metres in the village of Monfortino along the border with Monforte, and opposite the celebrated Ginestra vineyard in the latter.

Monfortino is not a selection of the best barrels, but a parcel selection made shortly before the harvest. The best pracels can vary from year to year. Only when their quality is significantly superior to the rest of Cascina Fancia is the selection vinified separately, in open-top vats.
