The 2019 Barolo Ginestra Vigna Sorì Ginestra is one of the most elegant wines I have ever tasted from Conterno-Fantino and the Ginestra cru. Ample and broad, with huge intensity, the Sorì Ginestra is stunning. All the Ginestra signatures come through in the glass. The 2019 is deep and vibrant, yet also wonderfully fresh. There is a creaminess in the 2019 that is impossible to miss. This is so impressive."

Left Conterno Fantino

This is the top name in ‘modernist” Barolo in Monforte. French barriques, short macerations and low yields all give the wines a modern, polished sheen.

There is lots of precision and attention to detail here, as well as organic farming, and to my taste these are some of the best examples of the modernist style from anywhere in Barolo.

Good terroir helps! They operate exclusively in Monforte, and release single vineyard bottlings from Sori Ginestra, a Mosconi and a Vigna del Gris.

"A great Barolo with an intoxicating nose of dried violet, almost potpourri, with intense cherry and pomegranate aromas. The elegance and intensity of Ginestra stands out here with incredibly well handled, velvety tannins, lifted acidity, and a super-savoury character. The vibrancy on the finish combined with its cleansing, elegant style ensure it's one for the long haul."
