The 2020 Poderi Aldo Conterno Langhe Rosso Quartetto is a polished and approachable blend from the Langhe, crafted by one of Piedmont’s most esteemed producers using a combination of Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto and Cabernet Sauvignon. It reflects a modern, balanced style that highlights both the region’s native character and a touch of international influence. The nose is vibrant and inviting, with aromas of red cherry, blackberry and plum, layered with violet, spice and hints of tobacco and cedar. Subtle herbal and earthy notes add complexity.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a smooth, supple texture and well-integrated tannins. Juicy dark fruit is supported by fresh acidity and a savoury edge, leading to a clean, rounded and persistent finish. The style is elegant and versatile, offering depth while remaining easy to enjoy.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great everyday premium red for customers looking for balance and drinkability with a touch of sophistication. It’s ideal for those who enjoy blends with both fruit and structure without being too heavy. Drink now or over the next 4–6 years. Perfect with pasta, pizza, grilled meats or charcuterie.
