Roberto Consterno's cellar is like a museum, an oenological sanctuary, keeper of an invaluable heritage. More than a century of activities, imposing barrels and verticals of Barolo France and Monfortino, who rested for decades, are a memorable journey backwards for decades, marked by a formidable winery knowledge and many, scrupulous harvest; A split of tradition Langarola and of author wines that surprise and fascinate at every sip. But Roberto's is a star that shines today as never before, thanks to two recent, important investments. Arrived in Alto Piedmont, with the desire to measure themselves with the particular expressions of the Nebbiolo at the foot of Monte Rosa, he bought 90% of the historic Nervi cellar in Gattinara; Area on which markets are recently placing particular attention. While in 2015 he acquired Gigi Rosso the Cru Arione di Serralunga d'Alba, one of the most prestigious vineyards of Barolo, adjacent to the south with the Cru France and highly anticipated debut this year. A wine, the 2015 arione, which seems to be interposed between a more "classic" monforton than the rest of the range, already extraordinarily expressive as a young man but with the hardening to challenge the decades, and a france of considerable impact but reluctant to score Its potential in the first years of life.
