Diego Conterno Dolcetto D'Alba
Diego Conterno's Dolcetto (meaning “little sweet one”) comes from the vineyards in Bricco Monguglielmo of Monforte d’Alba.
The wine has notes of red fruit, licorice, and warm spices.
All of Diego's wines are certified organic. The grapes for the Dolcetto are fully destemmed, followed by fermentation using indigenous yeasts in a temperature-controlled steel tank. The wine ages for 6 months in steel and cement tanks.
A rising star in the southern reaches of the Barolo zone, Diego Conterno and his son, Stefano, craft elegant Nebbiolo wines in Monforte d’Alba. Diego started his own project in 2000, after two decades at Conterno Fantino where he worked alongside his cousins, bringing with him a five-acre plot in ‘Ginestra,’ Monforte’s top cru. To Diego, wine is passion, interpretation, and art. Wine reflects the identity of a terroir: in this case, the Langhe of Monforte d’Alba. Conterno has been considering the vineyards, the grapes, and the wine from this point of view for over thirty years.
