Good To Know: Back in 1982, the two friends Claudio Conterno and Guido Fantino founded Azienda Agricola Conterno Fantino. Now, the company is environmentally sustainable, preserving the biodiversity and care of the land which yields a vineyard which is organically cultivated as certified by CCPB. Their goal is to reduce the negative environmental impact and use of solar panels and geothermal system. The winery also uses a wetland which is used for wastewater purification. Every part is important, from cultivation to production.

The 2020 Conterno Fantino Barolo Ginestra “Vigna Sorì Ginestra” is a powerful yet refined single-vineyard Nebbiolo from Monforte d’Alba’s famed Ginestra cru. Sourced from organically farmed vines planted between 1971 and 1988 at 340–360 m elevation in sand-silt-clay soils, it was harvested in mid‑October and fermented with extended maceration before aging for 24 months in French oak barriques and another year in bottle . The wine presents a deep garnet color and an expressive nose of wild cherry, plum, crushed flowers, mint, and spice, with hints of licorice, pine, and tobacco emerging over time . On the palate, it delivers taut tannins, vivid acidity, and a striking mineral backbone, culminating in a long, structured finish that showcases its classic Barolo pedigree . With critical acclaim—including scores near 96 from Vinous, 97 from James Suckling, and 95 from Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator—it is built for long-term cellaring, with peak drinking expected from 2026 into the 2040s .

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great wine bar. They offer a wide selection of wine & the tapas are delicious. I didn't think I'd enjoy bread with olive oil as much as I did! Gambas, patè & croquettes were also delicious. We went at around 2pm and it was quiet - we just wanted something light and available. I believe they offer a variety of meats that has to be pre ordered? We would love to come back. Also, very good service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Txanton offers a focused and authentic take on Spanish dining, grounded in its role as a jamonería and its clear respect for quality produce and tradition. At the heart of the menu is the jamón. The jamón tasting menu is particularly impressive, presenting six different varieties that span the full spectrum of cured ham, each one expertly prepared and deeply flavourful. The supporting dishes are equally strong, including excellent gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimps), a rich and comforting arroz cremoso con frutos de mar (seafood creamy rice), and bold chorizo picante a la brasa (spicy chorizo) with smoky depth. Dessert is distinctive and well judged, with the crema de queso (cream cheese) paired beautifully with PX wine, raisins, and a Tempranillo cookie. Service is relaxed and courteous, with staff providing thoughtful recommendations and attentive care throughout. The setting is welcoming and unpretentious, echoing the atmosphere of a traditional Spanish dining room - ideal for sharing plates, conversation, and good wine. Txanton succeeds in delivering a genuine Spanish experience, excelling in its jamón while offering a consistently well-executed menu.
