Cavallotto Barolo Riserva San Giuseppe 2012

Barolo, Italy

WineSaint

Bright red cherry and dried herbs show beautiful lift and energy. Rose petal and mint add aromatic complexity to this medium-bodied expression. The structure feels polished rather than imposing, with silky tannins that allow the fruit to shine. Classic Barolo character with earlier drinking appeal than typical Riserva bottlings. Drink 2020-2032.

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.
