Why We're Buying

With great aging comes great wine. That's the logic behind Cavallotto Bricco Boschis Vignolo, a red wine that sits up to five years in Slavonian oak casks before bottle-aging for another year. The result is a well-structured Barolo with perfume-like aromas and excellent cellaring potential.

ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The Cavallotto 2016 Barolo Riserva Vignolo is an organic wine that shows superb balance and great intensity. Elegance and power are in fact the twofold hallmark of this iconic vintage. This is a polished and silky wine with an almost glossy or latex-like quality to its tannins (that I love, by the way). This 5,333-bottle production hails from a two-hectare vineyard with 40-year-old vines. It has southwest exposures at a breezy 220 to 310 meters in altitude. Drink 2025-2050 (Jun 2022).
