Description
Cavallotto’s Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis San Giuseppe 2017 is a beautifully composed expression of Nebbiolo from one of Barolo’s most respected estates. Sourced from a very small parcel in Castiglione Falletto, it combines striking intensity with remarkable balance, capturing the classic soul of Barolo in a polished, age-worthy style.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the depth and elegance expected from great Barolo, with a profile built on purity, structure, and finesse. The nose offers dried herbs, wild strawberries, and subtle wood notes, while the palate is layered and refined, with clean red fruit, savory spice, and a harmonious, complex finish.
The wine’s balance and concentration suggest excellent aging potential, allowing it to evolve beautifully over many years. As it matures, the savory, floral, and earthy elements are likely to become even more pronounced, adding further depth and nuance.
Production
This wine comes from a tiny Nebbiolo parcel in Castiglione Falletto, in the heart of Piemonte’s Barolo zone, where the soils and exposure help bring out both aromatic precision and firm structure. The grapes are given a long maceration on the skins to build intensity and extract the wine’s signature depth, followed by 4 to 5 years of aging in large oak casks to preserve freshness while softening the tannins.
Food & Serving
An excellent match for rich, intense dishes such as braised beef, game, truffle-based pasta, and mature hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting is recommended, especially if enjoyed young, to allow the wine to open and show its full aromatic range.
Producer
Cavallotto is a historic Barolo producer known for its traditional approach and deep roots in the region. With a strong reputation for producing structured, age-worthy wines from estate vineyards in Bricco Boschis, the family has earned consistent acclaim for its authentic and highly respected expression of Nebbiolo.
