“The 2018 Barolo Francia is powerful, deep and also a touch austere. It
shows the edginess of all the 2018s, but also has a feeling of textural
creaminess that adds tons of character. Spice, menthol, leather and a
whole range of balsamic overtones build into the deep, imposing finish.
Roberto Conterno decided to forego his Barolo Monfortino in 2018, opting
instead to blend all the casks into his Francia bottling. When that happens,
Francia often surprises down the road. That could very well turn out to be
the case here.
