Note di degustazione
The 2019 Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis Vigna San Giuseppe is silky, elegant and quite refined, much more so than it was when I tasted it a few months prior. That makes me think it might be approachable earlier than I had originally envisaged. Floral overtones and beautifully sculpted Nebbiolo fruit are the signatures. Bright acids and beams of tannin shape the persistent mid-palate and finish.

Castiglione Falletto. Lustrous deep ruby with orange tinges. Generous and voluptuous and with more than a pinch of spice on the nose. Stunning depth of fruit without it becoming overwhelming. Laurel and cinnamon bark, but this has seen only large oak casks. Lush yet super-focused and with gorgeous supple acidity. Has lots of everything and impressively balanced. This will need more time in the bottle. (WS)
The organic Cavallotto 2019 Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis Vigna San Giuseppe shows thick texture and density with dark fruits, plum and blackberry layered with extra depth. This wine makes a big impact on the palate and wraps lavishly over the senses. This is one of the most opulent and full-bodied editions I have yet tasted. The fruit is sourced from a 2.38-hectare site with 60-year-old vines with southwest exposures at 310 and 340 meters in elevation. The wine sees 60 months of careful maturation in 20-hectoliter and 100-hectoliter Slavonian botti. In a curious sequence of numbers, production is 8,888 bottles, 666 magnums and 111 three-liter bottle formats.
Castiglione Falletto. Deep ruby. Balsamic and ethereal and very slow to open up. Fluid raspberry fruit, with supple acidity, becoming fuller and more aromatic on the finish. Bags of sandy tannins. Endlessly long and its generosity is reined in by the tannins. Stunning. (WS)
