Here’s what Antonio Galloni says about the two wines:

The 2004 Barolo Riserva Monfortino is as it has always been: virtually perfect. It is a staggeringly beautiful wine of heroic proportions, with all of the elements in the right place. The bouquet alone is head-spinning; but then the fruit conquers the palate with its sensual, beguiling beauty. The tannins are impeccable, polished and impossibly refined from start to finish. The 2004 Monfortino is shaping up to be one of the very finest wines ever made in Italy, or anywhere for that matter. Let me just say this: the 2004 Monfortino is the only wine at Conterno I did not spit on what turned out to be a magical afternoon. It was the last stop of the day, and I granted myself that one small indulgence. Anticipated maturity: 2024-2054.

The 2007 Barolo Cascina Francia shows wonderful inner perfume and class in a rather subdued, subtle style for this wine. The 2007 isn’t showing a ton of structure at this point, and looks to be a relatively accessible vintage. Conterno has never been a huge fan of 2007 and made the decision fairly early on not to make Monfortino, so all of the juice was blended just after the malolactic fermentations were completed. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2032.
