A beautiful purity of fruit to this young Barolo with ripe strawberries, citrus, flowers and spice. Full body, integrated tannins and a long finish. Need another two or three years to soften.
Cask sample and at the time of tasting they were undecided about whether the wine would be bottled under its vineyard name or disappear in the blend called Castiglione. Just mid ruby with orange rim. Lifted cherry nose. Sweet and leafy on the palate but otherwise still brooding and closed. Lots of stalky tannins and supple acidity showing up on the finish.
