I think it was the 1945 Conterno Barolo. Or maybe it was the 1931 Borgogno Barolo. Maybe the 1970 Mascarello Barolo Monprivato. Those are just a few of the most memorable bottles I have had the privilege of sharing with Il Professore. Over the years I have also bought quite a bit of wine from Il Professore, the collector I consider the world's greatest authority on traditionally made Barolo and Barbaresco. Those bottles, which include numerous examples of pristine wines from the 1950s through the 1980s, are the backbone of my cellar and have played a huge role in my own education. Needless to say, I never miss an opportunity to share dinner and a few bottles with Il Professore. Read the full article here.
