Poderi Aldo Conterno Colonnello Barolo 2020 shows both power and finesse, layering vibrant cherry and raspberry fruit with notes of violet, mint, licorice, warm spices and stone. The palate is concentrated yet lifted, with generous, sweet-toned fruit wrapped in finely textured but authoritative tannins and a long, precise finish that hints at its serious aging potential.

Colonnello is Aldo Conterno’s single‑vineyard Barolo from the Bussia cru in Monforte d’Alba, made from old-vine Nebbiolo (predominantly Michet and Lampia) and known for its floral, red‑berry perfume (rose, cherry, violet) overlaying tar, leather and spice notes. It shows Barolo’s signature high acidity and fine, layered tannins—often refined in large Slavonian oak casks—producing a taut, elegant yet powerful wine built for long aging and precise terroir expression.
