Bottles that cannot be found, exclusive lots, on sale for charity: the Barolo Auction, no. 17

A Monfortino Riserva of 1961 by Giacomo Conterno, two bottles of Barolo Bartolo Mascarello of 1964 and 1967, a Giacomo Borgogno Riserva of 1947, a Fontanafredda of 1959: these are just some of the rare pieces that on May 12, at the castle of Barolo, will be under the hammer of the annual Auction of Barolo, the No. 17, which lines up about sixty lots, all, of course, of the red that made the Nebbiolo and Langhe great. And there’s more: the proceeds of the auction will be donated to charity, to the non-profit 1Caffè, founded by Luca Argentero, inspired by the practice of “suspended coffee”, and has become an association that helps people in difficulty.
