Rocche di Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2018

Should kept this in the bottle for a while.
Once it opened up, it just started to get interesting.

Touch of bitter acid, clove, oak all kept this from a higher rating…

A serious balsamicy bottling that needs air and food. Critically hard to beat. — 3 months ago

Monprivato di Castiglione Falletto Barolo Nebbiolo 2010

Really a lovely Barolo. Last had 2 years ago. Opened 4 hours in advance, no decant. Don’t think it needed it either - this is quite seamless. Lighter color in the glass, but with a clarity that is obvious. Aromatically a lot of lighter red fruit and some earth. Palate has real depth with good acid and medium tannins with a very long finish. Quite delicious and a perfect pairing with some grilled campo grande pork marinated with garlic and rosemary. — 5 days ago

Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

2017 vintage.
Bright ruby colour.
Raspberry, dried dark flowers, tar and tobacco.
It has a floral and freshness.
Dried cherries, truffles, sweet spices and menthol.
Rustic with earthy richness.
Harvested in 4 sites. Rive in La Morra, Scarrone in Castiglione di Falletto, Baudana and Broglio in Serralunga.
I had a kilo of local fresh Matsutake mushrooms and made risotto with compound truffle butter.

Give it plenty of time in the glass or ideally in a decanter. It is a beautiful wine that needs time to open. Great effort in an off year. — 3 years ago
