The Fine Wine team is back in the recording studio to discuss a gem of the beautiful Piemonte region: Giacomo Conterno. Now at the helm of this celebrated Barolo house, having assumed the mantle on his father Giovanni’s untimely death in 2004, Roberto Conterno has not accepted the responsibility lightly. Hard work and attention to detail, allied to near fanatical traditionalism and perfectionism, has produced award-winning wines year on year in the Barolo estate, as well as in the higher altitudes of Gattinara, where his Alto Piemonte venture Nervi-Conterno is located. Gear up for a deep dive into the Conterno world, including the latest releases from Giacomo Conterno and a few recommendations for foodies...Â

Unpicked: A Trip to Germany
Following the final episode of Bordeaux Unpicked Season 2, Will and Guy turn their attention to Germany — a country close to Corney & Barrow’s heart, and home to iconic producers such as Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch and Joh. Jos. Prüm of the Mosel, and A. Christmann in Pfalz. Fresh from their recent trip, they offer an overview of the regions, their viticulture and winemaking practices (including experiments with AI) and, crucially, the outlook for the 2024 vintage.

Bordeaux Unpicked: Château Trotanoy & Other Releases
In our second to last episode before the close of the 2024 Bordeaux campaign, the Fine Wine team, joined for the first time by Broking's Max Edge, discuss one of the most exciting releases of the year: Château Trotanoy. Exclusive to Corney & Barrow and owned by the Moueix family, this wine is the purest expression of Pomerol, according to Head of Monopole Joe Muller, who boldly proclaims: "if you like Pomerol but have no Trotanoy in your cellar or reserves, then you do not like Pomerol." Would you agree?Â
