Cavallotto 2013 Bricco Boschis Vigna San Giuseppe Riserva (Barolo)
#17 Top 100 Cellar Selections 2021
Return to List A dazzling showing that combines old-school structure with finesse, this stunning red offers sublime aromas of rose, camphor, dark-skinned berry and new leather. Full bodied and delicious, the compelling palate delivers fruit purity and complexity, featuring ripe Marasca cherry, raspberry compote, star anise and tobacco. A backbone of noble tannins and vibrant acidity keep it impeccably balanced. Drink 2025–2053. Kerin O’Keefe
