Rocche di Castiglione 2019

Vietti

Case Format: 3x75cl

The grapes to produce the Vietti, Barolo, Rocche di Castiglione are grown in one of the historic vineyards of the Barolo area, Rocche in Castiglione Falletto. The wine has a medium-intense ruby red colour and a complex and elegant nose with notes of ripe red fruit (cherry, red berries) floral (rose petals with a hint of chamomile) and mineral nuances. It has a good intensity on the palate, fresh, well- balanced, silky, mouth-filling and rounded. The tannins are well-integrated. It has a long and persistent finish with good freshness.

James Suckling

Ravishing aromas of crushed raspberries and blueberries with rose petal and stem undertones. Full-bodied with integrated tannins that are very fine and long. It lasts for minutes on the palate. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Give it four or five years to open. Best after 2027.

For lovers of timeless Nebbiolo, the Vietti 2019 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione hits all its marks. Yes, Vietti makes beautiful Barolo from some of the best cru sites from across the appellation, but I confess a preference for this outstanding wine. Rocche di Castiglione has the home team advantage with vines located not too far from the winery that is nestled into the outer stone wall and urban fabric of the Castiglione Falletto village. This site is characterized by freshness, extreme precision (that always stands out), linearity, structure and balanced freshness. This naturally concentrated vintage also shows a juicy or succulent quality that is outstanding. Pretty mineral notes add to the balance and elegance. The vineyard site measures about one hectare. Rocche di Castiglione is an oddly shaped and elongated MGA with singular southeast exposures along a steep ravine, with Bussia to the west and Perno to the east.
