 In 1886, Paolo Conterno founded the Casa della Ginestra, dedicated to the production of Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto wines. A hard worker with great intuition, he devoted the best parts of the Ginestra hillside to the growing of the grapes, subdividing them by type, exposure and terrain. Furthermore, he had the foresight to predict the existence of a market of connoisseurs of these wines in the future. Paolo was succeeded by his son Carlo and his wife Giuseppina, who dedicated body and soul to the cultivation of the vineyards, producing only the best Barolo, bottling it in small quantities. The company was subsequently run by Paolo and Caterina Conterno, who selected the best of the native strains of Nebbiolo to grow in their vineyards in order to fulfill the extraordinary potential of the terroir. In this way, the Conterno family has handed down its love of wine growing through four generations. Today the company is managed by their children Giorgio and Marisa. As in the past, each of them makes their own contribution, caring for the vineyards with scrupulous dedication. It is not easy to cultivate vineyards situated on slopes of up to 38%. It requires a special kind of experience that only those who have known these lands since their childhood can have. As for today's feature, the grapes come from slightly younger vines in the best exposed area of Ginestra. The Riva Del Bric is one of the best values to be found in Barolo. The grapes are hand harvested near the end of October (about 3 weeks earlier in the heat of 2007) and are macerated for almost three weeks. It ages for 30 to 36 months in 35 HL (925 gallons) French Oak casks.
