Giacomo Conterno 'Francia' Barolo 2021 Size:Regular Ancient marine sediments and fossilsThe 2021 Barolo Francia is a vertical, explosive Barolo endowed with tons of energy. Bright acids and fine beams of tannin provide the framework for this striking young Barolo. All the elements are so well balanced.
