Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2013

Balsamic notes with a trace of mint. Barely medium weight with a soft fleshy palate - red cherries, spice and sweet herbs. This palate reflects the fact that 2013 was a good to very good vintage in Barolo. Great length at the finish. The first of 3 from my cellar. — 19 days ago

Rocche di Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2018

Should kept this in the bottle for a while.
Once it opened up, it just started to get interesting.

Touch of bitter acid, clove, oak all kept this from a higher rating…
