More about this wine
More about this wine
The renowned winery is located in the municipality of Monforte D'Alba and has made a name for itself for sustainable and high-quality Nebbiolo and other native grape varieties. The winery emphasizes traditional production methods and vineyard care to reflect the unique characteristics of the terroir in their wines. Barolo wines from Diego Conterno are known for their elegance, structure and finesse.
The grapes for the 2022 Diego Conterno Langhe Nebbiolo DOC come from the Ferrione vineyard, located on the edge of the municipality of Monforte D'Alba. The name Baluma means “Let's dance!” in the local dialect, which is why the bottle label shows an image of a dancing couple.
The berries are hand-picked at the end of September/beginning of October and then the grapes are completely destemmed and gently pressed. Spontaneous fermentation then takes place with native yeasts in a temperature-controlled stainless steel container. Maturation then takes place both in 500l oak barrels and in cement tanks. After a short time in the bottle, the Nebbiolo finally goes on sale.
