Conterno’s 2000 Barolo Riserva Monfortino gives an impression of accessibility only because it is so open relative to some of the surrounding vintages of this great, legendary Barolo. The 2000 has tons of fruit backed up with considerable tannic heft. With time in the glass sweet, balsamic notes make an appearance, but this is one of the few 2000s that needs considerable cellaring to show all of its cards. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2040. These are two exceptional Baroli from proprietor Roberto Conterno. The Cascina Francia shows the sexiness of the vintage, while Monfortino captures the power. The former is ready to deliver pleasure now, the latter may very well prove to be nearly immortal.

The 2000 Barolo Riserva Monfortino is a fabulous start to this retrospective dinner and tasting. We are fortunate to have very fine bottles, among the finest I have encountered. Sensual and aromatic, with exceptional balance, the 2000 is so showy today. It’s a gorgeous Barolo, one that turns darker and more virile with time in the glass, although the sexy, racy personality of the year is never too far away.
