Description

The Barolo Castiglione by Vietti is produced with Nebbiolo grapes that come from vineyards placed in the districts of Castiglione Falletto, Barolo, Monforte and Novello. The Barolo Castiglione is a very elegant wine, bright and shiny with a red ruby color. Its perfume is fruited and spiced, with hints of blueberries, plums and black cherries in addition to scents of licorice, spices and truffles. The Barolo Castiglione by Vietti is perfect to accompany medium seasoned cheeses, second courses of meat and game.

“The 2017 Barolo Castiglione is a wild, exotic wine. Super-ripe red cherry, kirsch, cinnamon, tobacco, new leather and rose petal all flesh out in this ample, voluptuous Barolo from Vietti. The 2017 is a wine of significant heft hidden behind a wall of tannin. Give it a few years to soften or open it well in advance. Time brings out striking translucence as well as finesse.”

(A. Galloni, Febbraio 2021)
