Note di degustazione
The 2001 Vietti Barolo Castiglione is very pretty and delicate, with aromas of flowers, crushed raspberries and anise followed by a mid-weight palate of red fruit that finishes with a nice sense of freshness. A bit austere today, this classic young Barolo will reward several years of bottle age and is usually the first of the Vietti wines to reach maturity. Made from a blend of various vineyards, this wine is also one of the best values in Barolo.

(the 2001s were bottled in August of 2004) Moderately saturated medium red. Red cherry, raspberry and flowers on the nose, with hints of mocha and leather. Sweet, round and fleshy but a bit withdrawn in the middle palate and tight on the back end. But this will be lush with another few years in the bottle. A non-cru bottling that's actually a blend of five crus: Bussia, Ravera, Bricco del Fiasc, Meriondino and Fossati.
