Barolo Riserva "San Giuseppe" Cavallotto Fratelli 2017

Today the children of Olivio – Laura, Giuseppe and Alfio, the 4th generation working the family farm – continue to exclusively vinify the grapes produced in their estate vineyards into DOC and DOCG wines: Barolo, Dolcetto d’Alba, Barbera d’Alba, Langhe Nebbiolo, Langhe Freisa, Langhe “Grign” made from Grignolino grapes, Langhe Chardonnay and “Pinner” made from Pinot Nero grapes.

Since 1928, the Cavallotto family has owned the estate Tenuta Bricco Boschis. In 1946, they were the first cultivators in Castiglione Falletto to vinify all of their estate’s fruit. In 1948 they released the first bottling of their own BAROLO wine, with the label and registered trademark of Cavallotto.

Fermented with indigenous yeasts, macerated with submerged cap for 20-35 days. Traditional in Slavonian Oak Casks for 4-5 years. 12 months before release into the market.

Great structure but with elegance and complexity. The initial perfumes are fruity and followed by floral aspects, then spices, all open and intense.
