The 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino is laced with crushed red berry fruit, cedar, tobacco, spice, mint and dried flowers. This lithe, elegant Langhe Nebbiolo has quite a bit to offer. It's a lovely entry-level offering, especially in this vintage.

The Conterno Fantino 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino reveals medium-rich concentration with primary fruits that touch the darker side of the Nebbiolo spectrum. Notes of blackberry and wild plum are softened by oak, tarry spice and toasted cinnamon. The wine deserves a bigger drinking window, probably taking it up to the 10-year mark.

Tasted alongside the 2023, the 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino is a similar medium red color and shows off the sunny side of the vintage, with deeper notes of ripe berries, dried earth, and subtle hints of balsamic herbs. The palate remains medium-bodied, though, offering more extract and richness, with ripe tannins and a salty flourish on the finish. Here again, this is more than a simple fruity wine in the category.
