About the manufacturer
Aldo Conterno
Aldo Conterno is a traditional winery from Piedmont that has made a name for itself in the renowned Barolo wine region. The winery stands for authentic, handcrafted Wines that perfectly reflect the terroir of their origin.
At Aldo Conterno, you'll find Wines vinified with great respect for tradition – without being stuck in the past. The winery combines classic Piedmontese winemaking with modern expertise, resulting in expressive Wines that unite elegance and complexity.
The Colonnello is a prime example of this philosophy: a Barolo that showcases the power and structure of this great Italian appellation, while also retaining finesse and minerality. You won't find over-extracted or over-oaked Wines here, but rather Wines with genuine substance and aging potential.
What sets Aldo Conterno apart is its consistent focus on quality combined with fair pricing – a rare commodity in the world of fine Wines. The Wines are mature enough to enjoy now, but also have the potential to age for years to come.

Colonel
The Aldo Conterno Colonnello 1996 is an exceptional Nebbiolo from the heart of Piedmont, one of Italy's most important wine regions. The traditional Aldo Conterno winery is an icon of the region, synonymous with uncompromising quality and a deep connection to the terroir. This bottle embodies more than a quarter-century of Piedmontese winemaking tradition.
The vinification follows traditional methods: long maceration, extended aging in large wooden barrels, and patient bottle maturation. The 1996 Vintage is considered excellent and has allowed this Nebbiolo to develop impressively. The grapes come from carefully selected vineyards, which give the wine its characteristic depth.
On the nose, a complex bouquet unfolds, revealing aromas of dried rose petals, ripe cherries, and hints of leather and tobacco. On the palate, the 1996 Aldo Conterno Colonnello is powerful yet elegant, with silky tannins and vibrant acidity that preserves the wine's freshness. The finish is long and complex, with subtle spice notes and mineral nuances.
