The 1985 Cascina Francia Barolo from Giacomo Conterno is the definition of refinement. It instantly bursts open with exotic aromas of dried berries, orange peel, fresh porcini, licorice, tar and florals before layering in subtle notes of sweet spices and molasses. This still possesses amazing structure, beautiful balance and a long lingering finish. A simply amazing wine from Giacomo Conterno that is still showing beautiful after 30 years. - January, 2015 (JD)
