    “One of the most remarkable location in the Castiglione Falletto area, that Cavallotto’s family own and take care of since 1928. Now is the fourth generation to run the company, but the vision is the same that was before, a muscular and powerful Barolo. Wild plum, then orange peel and juniper on the nose. The mouthfeel is taut and crispy, salty tannins with an officinal and fruity trace that return in the aftertaste” – Luca Gardini

    “The 2017 Barolo Bricco Boschis is highly aromatic with anise, dried leather, and burnt orange. Ripe and structured, it offers ripe cherry, turned forest floor, and a long finish. The warmth of the vintage is felt while remaining fresh. Drink 2024-2042.” – Audrey Frick

    Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 94 points

    “Available in numbered bottles, the organic Cavallotto 2017 Barolo Bricco Boschis is a generous and fleshed out expression that opens to immediate aromas of cherry, wild plum and cassis. There are floral notes as well, and some spice, licorice and grilled herb. Like many of the Barolos I tasted from this vintage, the bouquet is accessible and generous now, but the wine is tannic and more austere in terms of mouthfeel, requiring extra bottle age. The hope is that both the bouquet and the palate will evolve at the same pace. From 45-year-old vines. Drink date 2024 – 2040.” – Monica Larner

    : “Aromas of rose, wild berries, leather and sunbaked underbrush come to the forefront. The wine was made with organically farmed grapes, and the palate shows an earthy elegance, featuring ripe cherry, blood orange, star anise and hints of truffle before closing on an iron note. Firm but refined tannins provide support. Drink 2027–2032.” – Kerin O’Keefe
