Truffle, earth and mushrooms notes went hand in hand with truffle pâté. Developing and unlikely to improve with further aging ... drink now — 6 years ago

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. — 2 years ago

9.1

Delightful nose of cherry, raspberry, strawberry complemented by tobacco, touch of balsamic and hint of truffle. The fruits feel lightly candied on the juicy palate. Medium body, and the tannins command attention.

If the Castiglione bottling is the king, this would be the queen: lively, graceful, yet authoritative. — 3 years ago

Delicious. I preferred the freshness & tension upon opening but open for business towards the end. Masculine wine but still charming. Classic Castiglione. — 5 years ago

Stunning wine, still very primary but some leather and earth tones emerging. Hold for a while longer or enjoy now for the beautiful black cherries and rose petals — 6 years ago

(Tasted at La Festa del Barolo, Del Posto NY)
In 2013 Brovia's "Rocche di Castiglione" presents itself as a pretty huge and hulking wine. But nevertheless it has this typical perfumed nose with tons of red flowers and small red berries. In the palate it showed a rather wild character for a "Rocche", with the urge to have more time to bring the massive fruit, tannins and acidity in a perfect balance. I can't wait to see this wine age. — 6 years ago

Red fruit and earthy notes. Medium-bodied, tart red fruit (sour cherry, strawberry) on the palate. Light tannin, racy acidity. — 3 years ago

Fenocchio's Barolo Villero is quite sensual and inviting in 2015, which is probably a reflection of the year, as wines from this Castiglione Falletto site tend to be quite reticent, especially when young. Spice, menthol, licorice, dried flowers and pine grow with time in the glass. The Villero is another impressive, showy wine in this lineup. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2019) — 5 years ago

Brilliant. Light bodied and graceful with pure and elegant red fruits carrying graceful tannins and lovely acidity into a long finish. Understand style. Burgundian. Love it! — 6 years ago
