2017 Barolo, Francia, Giacomo Conterno, Piedmont, Italy Bordeaux First Growth so to celebrate our 325thThe 2017 Barolo Francia is dense, rich and explosive right out of the gate. There is virtually no feeling of tannin, as the creaminess of the fruit is so expansive. Bright red cherry fruit, blood orange, kirsch, sage and menthol gradually appear as the 2017 opens in the glass. In 2017, Francia was decidedly exotic, not to mention such a thrill to taste.
