About the wine

What Guido Fantino and Claudio Conterno have achieved since the founding of the joint wine company in 1982 is impressive: It all began in the backyard, in a coach house, where the first barrels and the essentials were kept close together. Today, one of the most modern and beautiful wineries in the region is located on Bricco Bastia, the highest point above Monforte d'Alba. Modern oenology is used here, sparkling chrome steel from the fermentation tanks and fine oak wood from the barriques impressively shape the character of the cellar. All wines that leave this cellar are clearly and precisely defined as the architecture and furnishings of this model company. Whether it's the simple Nebbiolo, the fruity Barbera or the complex Sori Ginestra, each one is a masterpiece in itself!

Tasting note
For almost 40 years now, the Sorì Ginestra by Claudio Conterno and Guido Fantino has been regarded as an unmistakable standard among modern Baroli. Old vines, over forty years old, ripen small grapes, from which, after intensive but gentle maceration, a dense, concentrated must flows into the mostly small barriques, where it develops into mature wine. Ageing in wood takes 24 months. According to Guido Fantino, his Sorì Ginestra is now at its maximum potential. The complex aromas combine notes of medicinal herbs and wild flowers, dry grass, tea and tobacco. The supple tannins are soft and harmoniously embedded in an appealing mix of sour/sweet.
