Description

I have for auction, one complete case (SIX bottles, in original wooden case) of this classic, rich Barolo. A total of 3905 bottles of this wine were produced during this vintage. I am selling this delicious example of an iconic Italian wine in an effort to "streamline" my wine collection:

Produced in the Piemonte (Piedmont) region of northern Italy, from the Nebbiolo grape, this is a savory, rich, classic Barolo; drinking now, but with good ageing potential, it makes a wonderful accompaniment to stews and roasts, for example, especially if beef or lamb based. Perfect on cold winter evenings!

By way of description, I am posting a handful of Reviews, with the accompanying scores:

James Suckling (93 points):
"A beautiful red, with plum, chestnut and light chocolate. Full body, firm tannins and a fresh finish. So wonderful now but give it three or four years to come together still. "

Robert Parker (93 points)
"With fruit sourced from various points within the Castiglione Falletto township, the 2012 Barolo Castiglione continues on its promise to offer a solid drinking experience based purely on quality Nebbiolo. This wine speaks more to the specific qualities of Nebbiolo, more than vineyard site. It opens to a dark garnet color with young aromas of cherry and spice. Elegant balsam notes of mint and licorice add a sharper sense of definition. This is a solid-drinking Barolo for the near and medium term. "

Antonio Galloni (93 points)
"The 2012 Barolo Castiglione is a gorgeous, radiant wine. Sweet red cherry, pomegranate, wild flowers and spices all meld together in a sensual, radiant wine endowed with striking presence and intensity. In 2012, the Castiglione is especially lifted, radiant and expressive, with striking purity and nuance. With time in the glass, the wine freshens up considerably, so aeration is a good idea for readers who want to open the 2012 early. This is a striking, seriously delicious Barolo from Vietti. "

Not to be missed!
