Reviewed January 2026
Multilayered yet overt and generous, showing dried violets, potpourri, licorice, cherry pits and pomegranate. Full-bodied and almost salty, with firm, dusty tannins, crisp acidity and a tight yet balanced finish due to great fruit concentration. Warming yet harmonious. October 2026 release. Drink then or hold. (AF)

Review Date: 01/2026
Even in this warm, dry year, the 2022 Barolo Arione offers tons of the mineral and savory intensity that is such a signature of this site. Sage, dried herbs, graphite, menthol, licorice and white pepper complement a core of deeply layered, dark Serralunga fruit. The rich mid-palate and sustained finish suggest a very bright future.

Notes

The 2022 Giacomo Conterno Barolo Arione in magnum (1.5L) is a powerful, authoritative expression of one of Serralunga d'Alba's most prestigious south-facing crus. It offers a profile of macerated cherries, graphite, and wild herbs, underpinned by the "gravitas" and dense, savory structure typical of Arione’s limestone soils. While the 2022 vintage provided a generous core of ripe fruit, the wine remains defined by its firm, architectural tannins and a long, mineral-driven finish. Bottled in a magnum, this wine is built for multi-decade aging and is expected to reach its full secondary complexity starting around 2035.
