Guidobono "Le Coste di Monforte" Barolo 2009

Guidobono "Le Coste di Monforte" Barolo 2009

The Le Coste vineyard is in the hills surrounding Monforte dAlba. Classic Nebbiolo with luminous colour and broad aromas of fruit and violets. Mineral notes and elegant tannins offer a progressive depth of sensation. Bold black and red fruit on the nose. The palate is rich without being over-extracted. Lush and very drinkable.
Barolo “Le Coste di Monforte” is classic in style with all of the structure and grace that one expects from Monforte Barolo.

Cascina Chicco has been famous for generations in Roero for their Arneis, Barbera and Nebbiolo. The recent acquisition of the Guidobono estate marries their experience and passion with an ability to offer amazing value for money.

This project seems to be the answer to the great Piemonte quandary: modern or traditional? With a foot in both camps, Guidobono provides an easy drinking ripeness to please the modern school while maintaining depth and edge to satisfy any Northern Italian purist.
