 "The 2004 Barolo Cascina Francia boasts staggering depth and explosive intensity from the very first taste. One of the most brooding, backward 2004s, the Cascina Francia is one of the only wines in this vintage that I am slightly disappointed to have opened, as it is so intensely backward. Hints of sage, tobacco, menthol, rose petal and graphite open up in the glass, recalling just how mesmerizing the 2004 was in cask. At once silky, while at other times virile, the 2004 Cascina Francia is constantly changing in the glass. The multiple shades of nuance and complexity are those of Nebbiolo from a great site as expressed by one of the region's historic families. The price of Monfortino has escalated rapidly over the last few years, but by comparison, the 2004 Cascina Francia is still available in the market and represents a good relative value."

"Cascina Francia and Monfortino ... considered by most observers as among the most profound wines in the world.”
- Antonio Galloni

Every wine region has its superstar: DRC in Burgundy, Chave in the Rhône, Petrus in Pomerol… and Giacomo Conterno in Barolo.

Among Conterno’s treasures, Cascina Francia has long set the standard, the benchmark others aspire to match.

These wines are timeless in every sense - effortlessly aging for decades and embodying the purity of traditional winemaking.

Conterno’s style is the ultimate balance: never oaky, never rustic. Pale in color yet bursting with endless aromatics, delivering a finish that lingers for days.
