Tasting notes
The 2000 Barolo Conca moves more towards a traditional type of Barolo with a powerful, tarry nose and a solid, authoritative palate and will last over a dozen years.

(about two-thirds new barriques used) Medium red. Aromas of redcurrant, tobacco and smoky, nutty oak, with a mineral nuance. Richer and sweeter than this estate's other 2000 Barolos, with more flesh and a finer-grained texture. Finishes with broad, suave tannins and subtle persistence. Still, this is rather shy today, and not yet showing itself.
