Bio: The Conterno name is as synonymous with Barolo as it is prolific.

Diego and his son, Stefano, have managed their portion of the family vineyards organically since 2010 achieving certification in 2014.
The wines are made with minimal intervention, native yeast fermentation and very little sulfuring at bottling.
