The Conterno Fantino winery was founded in 1982 by Claudio Conterno and Guido Fantino. Environmental sustainability, preserving biodiversity, respect of the land and its heritage are the guiding principles in their vineyards, which are organically cultivated (as certified by CCPB). With the goal of further reducing their environmental impact, the 2008 winery expansion utilised various technical improvements with the aim of energy conservation, such as solar panels, a geothermal system and finally, the use of wetland specifically set up for wastewater purification. The Conterno Fantino winery styles its wines with the primary goal of reflecting their own identity: from painstaking manual selection of fruit to harvest by hand using small crates; from preserving the aromas of the vineyard with spontaneous fermentation from indigenous yeasts (no commercial yeast is used here); from the careful use of wood for the ageing of the wines to the minimal use of sulfites, right up to the bottle ageing.

Antonio Galloni

The 2019 Barolo Ginestra Vigna Sori Ginestra is one of the most elegant wines I have ever tasted from Conterno-Fantino and the Ginestra cru. Ample and broad, with huge intensity, the Sori Ginestra is stunning. All the Ginestra signatures come through in the glass. The 2019 is deep and vibrant, yet also wonderfully fresh. There is a creaminess in the 2019 that is impossible to miss. This is so impressive.
