| Over het wijnhuis | In het hart van de Barolo DOCG, in het plaatsje Castiglione Falletto, liggen de unieke cru-wijngaarden van Cavallotto. Cavallotto behoort tot de oudste producenten van Barolo, met een traditionele, op terroir gespitste stijl van wijn maken. De verschillende terroirs van de cru’s Bricco Boschis (met zijn bijzondere 'single vineyard' Vigna San Giuseppe) en Vignolo komen op fantastische wijze tot uiting in hun Nebbiolo-wijnen. Behalve Nebbiolo maakt Cavallotto onder andere een waanzinnige Barbera d’Alba Superiore. |
| Wijngaard en regio | Afkomstig van verschillende percelen in de cru Bricco Boschis in de comune (gemeente) Castiglione Falletto in Barolo, waaronder de historische percelen 'Punto Marcello' en 'Colle Sud-Ovest'. Het zijn heuvelachtige wijngaarden met een ligging op het westen, zuidwesten, zuidoosten of zuiden. |
| Vinificatie | De druiven worden ontsteeld. De gisting vindt plaats een gecontroleerde temperatuur van 29 graden. De 'hoed' (schilletjes die boven komen drijven) wordt regelmatig ondergedompeld, het sap regelmatig overgepompt. Hierdoor krijgt de wijn meer kleur, tannine en smaak. De totale maceratietijd is 30 tot 35 dagen. De wijn rijpt 36 tot 42 maanden op Slavonisch eiken van 20, 30, 50, 80 en 100 hectoliter. De wijn verblijft vervolgens nog 6 maanden op de fles voordat deze op de markt wordt gebracht. |

| Awards | "Klassiek, kersen, pruimen, rozen, teer, peper, intens. Erg goed fruit, dan stevige tannine, zeer lang, veel tijd nodig." - Perswijn "This estate is certainly the most prolific interpreter of the hilltop Bricco Boschis MGA in Castiglione Falletto. The Cavallotto 2019 Barolo Bricco Boschis (a certified organic wine) would benefit from more time in the bottle. I encountered many Barolos in 2019 that reveal a slightly reductive approach that bodes well for long cellaring. This wine is characterized by velvety black fruit that is framed by dusty nuances of crushed limestone. It builds focus and precision with more time in the glass. Some 18,800 bottles were released." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "The 2019 Barolo Bricco Boschis is an absolutely gorgeous wine that needs plenty of air to open. Bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, rose petal, cinnamon, star anise and mint all grace this mid-weight, wonderfully expressive Barolo. It has been some years since I have tasted a Cavallotto Barolo with this kind of translucent old-school classicism." - Vinous "Expressive and complex, offering cherry, raspberry, floral, iron, tar and eucalyptus aromas and flavors. Shows a silky texture and a vibrant, well-integrated structure. Harmonious overall, lingering with generous detail on the finish. Best from 2026 through 2045." - Wine Spectator "Cask sample. Mid to deep ruby with orange tinges. Very compact nose of raspberry coulis with salty hints underneath. Very pretty, aromatic raspberry palate with firm, underlying tannins but this is still in cask and will need substantial time once this is in bottle. Energetic acidity tied to the fruit. Very complete and with an impressive, focused raspberry finish that can only be counted in light years. Very tannic at the moment. (WS)" - Jancis Robinson "Alfio Cavallotto is one of the most traditional producers in Langhe. His winemaking is not only classic but old-fashioned: indigenous yeast, oak fermentation, almost no temperature control, and long maceration with submerged cap. His wines are dark and concentrated and this 2019 is no different. Earthy and smoky, it has dark cherry and blood orange aromas alongside plenty of dried fruits. There's firm acidity to the fore, as well as firm tannins, with great mid-palate extraction. There's ome stickiness on the gums now so it comes across as very austere at the moment, but it's very good on the finish. This deserves more time in bottle and consumers who appreciate the style." - Decanter "Capturing the freshness and finesse of the vintage, this has classic varietal aromas of rose petal, forest berry, camphor and underbrush. Reflecting the nose, the vibrant, focused palate delivers ripe red cherry, crushed raspberry, wild mint and star anise set against taut, refined tannins. Bright acidity keeps it balanced. While you won't have to wait years before enjoying this, it will also age at least another decade or more. Best 2024–2033." - 95 punten, Wine Enthusiast over de 2018-vintage |
