Cavallotto Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis Vigna San Giuseppe 2006

Brooding and monumental, with dense layers of wild cherry, leather and crushed violets wrapped in iron-fisted tannins. The palate shows impressive concentration, though the wine remains locked down at this stage. Mineral notes and dried herbs emerge on the long finish. A serious Barolo that demands patience.

Cavallotto

Cavallotto is a family estate in Castiglione Falletto with a near-monopoly on the Bricco Boschis vineyard, producing some of the Langhe's most classically structured Barolos from a single, contiguous hillside site.
