Why We're Buying

Cavallotto Bricco Boschis has a distinctive floral and perfumed nose. That inviting bouquet parlays into a full body built around a core of red cherries and red currants. Thyme, tobacco, rose petals, anise, and sandalwood frame this Barolo, providing the structure and complexity necessary for long-term cellaring. Wine critic Kerin O'Keefe gave the 2016 vintage a 99-point rating and called it a must-have for any cellar.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

All of these wines from Cavallotto deliver a very floral and perfumed subtext that gives lift and delicate buoyancy to the overall bouquet. This is the Castiglione Falletto magic that shows so well in this classic vintage. The 2016 Barolo Bricco Boschis offers dried cherry, sandalwood, bramble and forest floor. The wine reveals a slightly wild and untamed character that adds to its interest and personality. Overall, this is an elegant wine with a streamlined and elegant finish. The aromas are focused and bright. I can't wait to taste the Riserva expression from this site when it is released in three years' time.
