Score 86/100 · Drink 1997-2000, Robert Parker, Aug 1997

Conterno-Fantino's Nebbiolo/Barbera blend, the 1993 Monpra, aged in small new oak casks, has turned out reasonably well in 1993. It is a spicy, oaky, slightly austere wine, that is pure, cleanly made, and well-balanced. The wine offers tomato-flavored Barbera fruit, with some of the spice, tar, and rose petal fragrance of the Nebbiolo grape. Drink it over the next 2-3 years. Importer: Empson USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900
