Castellengo top bottling
N old Nebbiolo.
P tastes old. Orange. Mineral. Highly acidic. Not much fruit. Cherry as it opens. Fascinating.

Wow. This has aged magnificently. As good a bottle of entry level wine as I’ve had from Italy. Such a joy to drink.

N: pink roses. Some bramble.

P: perfect Nebbiolo fruit still fresh. Awesome.

So loving the nose on this. Zingy red fruit, a little happy barnyard. In the mouth, great acids and crisp, intense flavors. Tannins in check. So much character for $$. — 6 months ago

Not sure if the identification is correct. Nice fresh cherries and berries, nice medium tannins. Delicious — 4 years ago

Probably the best croatina I’ve ever had! Okay, prob the only one I’ve ever had. Another Lou classic, earthy, funky, tart cherries, beautiful ruby color and barnyard nose. — 6 years ago

Made from 50% Nebbiolo, 40% Croatina, and 10% Vespolina. Light bodied with high acidity. This is a tasty red blend from Alto Piemonte. Cherry and strawberry flavors come through initially on the palate, followed by orange zest, slight hints of cinnamon and bay leaf, and a strong mineral backbone. Tasty, persistent finish. The fruit flavors are exuberant and really dominate initially. Over time the other flavors come out a bit more. This is the 2024 vintage. — 4 months ago

Enjoyed this wine, paired with Mie Gorang (Indonesian noodles). This fuller bodied rose has a fair bit of tannins that balanced the intensity of the dish while matching the aromas well. Fairly citrusy and floral. Not much on the nose. Finish is a lingering sweetness on the back of the palate. Very interesting rosè, would love to have again. — 2 years ago

Lovely and bright. Menthol and a blood orange element. Blind some might call it a Pinot but it's distinctly Nebbiolo and a classy one at that. — 6 years ago

Less aroma than Nebbiolo but surprisingly high tannins and very healthy dense color. — 7 years ago

vintage 2016 | 80% nebbiolo, 15% vespolina, 5% croatina. Ten years old and fully alive and kicking. Brownish colour, tertiairy tones in smell. Very good balance, integrated tannines. I loved the bouquet: stinky in the positive way, spices, stewed fruit. A hint of manure. A Piëmonte nebbiolo that I like. Paired with a lasagne. — 4 months ago

A love letter to what an every day drinking Alto Piemonte red can be — feather light, high toned, floral, spiced (star anise), earthy and fragrant. All the pomegranates. Finished the trip where we started. — 3 years ago
