- Description
"All of the grapes for this wine come from the single 'cru' called Bricco Boschis. This is classic Castiglione Falletto Barolo, combining the clear fruit notes of La Morra and Barolo itself (strawberry, occasionally red-currant) with many other botanical notes supported by middling dark-chocolate tannins; it's firmer than La Morra, but not as beefy as Serralunga. I find these traditionally made wines (long maceration, aged in large barrels) more drinkable when young than the modern-style wines, but this will age for as long as you can resist opening it." -Oliver McCrum
