Founded by Aldo Conterno in the mid-20th century, the winery is now run by his sons, who continue the family’s legacy of precision, restraint, and deep respect for terroir. Their vineyards are located in the prestigious Bussia cru of Monforte d’Alba, an area known for producing powerful yet age-worthy expressions of Nebbiolo.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Il Favot” is named after a historic parcel within Bussia and is crafted from younger vines that would otherwise contribute to Barolo. By declassifying the fruit into Langhe Nebbiolo, the Conterno family offers a wine that is more accessible in its youth, while still reflecting the pedigree of the estate. The winemaking remains traditional, with extended maceration and careful aging to build structure and complexity without overwhelming the fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNebbiolo is one of Italy’s most noble grape varieties, prized for its aromatic intensity, high acidity, and firm tannins. It is a grape that demands both patience and precision, often requiring years to fully evolve. In Il Favot, Nebbiolo is presented in a more immediate and approachable form, yet still retains its hallmark structure and depth. This is an excellent introduction to the grape, offering insight into Barolo’s world without the wait.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eRose petals, red cherry, and raspberry with notes of tar, spice, and dried herbs.
