Discover the refined allure of Barolo Cicala DOCG from Poderi Aldo Conterno, a standout red wine hailing from Italy's Piedmont region. This expression draws from the esteemed Cicala vineyard, where vines, aged 45 to 50 years, feature primarily the Lampia clone of Nebbiolo planted on Rupestris du Lot rootstock. Replanting occurs periodically to maintain vitality, ensuring grapes reach peak quality through meticulous manual harvest and on-site selection.

Poderi Aldo Conterno balances innovation and heritage across its portfolio.
