Barolo, often called the “King of Wines,” is known for its incredible aging potential, and this bottle is no exception.
Crafted by the rising powerhouse of Monforte d'Alba, Diego Conterno, a winemaker who’s reshaping the very soul of Barolo, one bottle at a time. You’re not just drinking history—you’re tasting the future of one of the greatest wine regions in the world.
‘Le Coste di Monforte’ is the kind of wine that demands attention. Grown at the edge of the Barolo zone, where the altitude and cool temperatures let Nebbiolo do its thing in the purest form. It’s bold. It’s complex. And it’s got that wow factor that only comes when you’ve spent years perfecting your craft. Diego’s vineyard sits at the highest reaches of the zone—where those cool, alpine winds keep the wine fresh, while the sun ensures it’s full of character, depth, and ripeness.
But it’s not just the location. It’s the passion, the craftsmanship, and the vision. Diego and his son Stefano aren’t just making wine—they’re telling a story with every bottle. With ‘Le Coste,’ they’ve created a wine that’s as powerful as it is graceful. This wine has all the elegance you crave from Barolo, but with a twist. It’s rich, layered, and powerful but never in-your-face. The use of large oak casks (botti) and cement fermentation tanks lets this wine show off its true character—pure, natural, and without compromise. And let’s not forget the organic farming—Diego and Stefano have been committed to it since 2010, and their dedication shines through in every glass.
‘Le Coste di Monforte’ isn’t just another bottle to open. It’s a wine that’ll make you sit back and think, This is what Barolo is all about. From the first sip to the last, this is a wine that speaks to the heart of what great Barolo should be—classic, refined, but with a personality all its own.
