{"product_id":"barolo-giacomo-conterno-1961","title":"Barolo Giacomo Conterno 1961","description":"Giacomo Conterno Barolo 1961 is a fully mature Nebbiolo red wine from the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, northern Italy. The Barolos of Giacomo Conterno are renowned for their extraordinary combination of power, subtlety and longevity, and to many represent the apogee of Italian fine wines. The estate was founded in the 1920s and is currently operated by Roberto, grandson of winery founder and namesake. On the 1961 Barolo. \"The 1961 Barolo from Giovanni Conterno is a great wine and will make no one pine for Monfortino when this natural beauty is in the glass. I have been fortunate to drink this vintage of Conterno Barolo with some frequency over the years, and this most recent bottle was everything one could have asked for in a perfectly mature, superb Barolo, though this bottle was more black fruity than the last couple I have drunk. The bouquet here is a deep, complex and meaty blend of dark berries, black cherries, beef broth, bonfires, roasted venison, fennel seed, nutskins and forest floor. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and à point, with a fine core, moderate tannins and excellent length and grip on the focused and robust finish. The more red fruity and pure bottles of this I have had over the years are more my paradigm for this wine, but this particular bottle still delivered plenty of pleasure.\" John Gilman, 2014","brand":"Giacomo Conterno","offers":[{"title":"Duty Paid","offer_id":62412409471306,"sku":"HED90175","price":550.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/7696\/2634\/files\/HED90175.jpg?v=1781891784","url":"https:\/\/hedonism.co.uk\/products\/barolo-giacomo-conterno-1961","provider":"Hedonism Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
