2016 Vietti Castiglione, Barolo DOCG, Italy

Grapes: 100% Nebbiolo

Winemaking: The grapes are selected from small
vineyards spread in the Barolo region. The vines are
between 9 and 42 years old, planted in a clay-limestone
soil. Plants are trained with guyot method, with an average
density of roughly 4500 units per hectare. All the different
crus are vinified and aged separately with slightly different
processes to underline the singular characteristics of
each parcel and terroir. Fermentation occurs in stainless
steel with daily cap submersion for extraction of flavor and
color.

Aging: The wine is aged for roughly 30 months in oak
casks and barriques; all parcels are then carefully blended
before bottling.

Food Pairings: Hearty stew, wild game, roasted red
meats and cheeses.

Lastly, the 2016 Barolo Castiglione from Vietti shows the warmer style of the vintage with its ripe, sexy style yet has a wonderful elegance as well as medium to full body, ripe, integrated tannins, and layered notes of black raspberries, cherries, spring flowers, orange blossom, and violets. It's not massive, but it’s beautifully complex, with plenty of richness and depth on the mid-palate, and shows the sunny, sexy style of the vintage, followed by a great finish. Drink this fabulous Barolo over the coming 15-20+ years or more. Reviewed by Jeb Dunnuck. Tasting date: June 24, 2020. Drinking window: 2020-2042.

(Rating 94+) The Vietti 2016 Barolo Castiglione opens to a grounded and authentic profile with hints of mint, balsam herb and tilled earth. The primary fruit is neatly folded into all those other components, and all received equal billing when the final results are counted. The entry-level Castiglione is always the most accessible of Vietti's Baroli, but this vintage shows a heightened level of intensity, complexity and freshness. Those silky tannins are followed by beautiful menthol brightness. This is a real charmer. Reviewed by Monica Larner. Issue date: July 23, 2020. Drinking window: 2022-2040.

The 2016 Barolo Castiglione is a dazzling wine that will show readers just how compelling this vintage is, even among entry-level wines from top producers. Rich, ample and explosive, the 2016 possesses tremendous richness and resonance from the very first taste. Bright red cherry and red plum fruit, wild flowers, mint, blood orange and spice build as this sumptuous, dramatic Barolo shows all it's got. As always, the Castiglione is built on a core of fruit from Ravera. In 2016, the Castiglione benefits from the inclusion of several new sites, including Ginestra, Mosconi, Bricco Ravera (in Monforte), Le Coste, Costabelle, Meriame, Briccolina and Codana. All I can say is: What a wine! Reviewed by Antonio Galloni. Tasting date: November 2019. Drinking window: 2024-2041.
