I really enjoyed this! Great recommendation as it was really different. Massive allspice, cloves, and chocolate. Super smooth and thick. Great value at £24, so much so that I bought a bottle for the road! Best thing was the guy was a Blue Jays fan! Not many of those in London! — 5 years ago

Eccezionale blend di tempranillo, merlot e cabernet Sauvignon. Un vino davvero longevo che presenta dei tannini nobili e delicati che rimandano a profumi e sensazioni di frutti estivi di amarene e ribes. In bocca persistente e aromatico con note di vanilla e di pepe bianco. Un legno dolce lo avvolge, quello delle foreste francesi di Allier. Fantastico e con un sorprendente invecchiamento che ne conserva ancora un colore pieno con sfumature granate. Un verdadero placer! — 7 years ago

Long mazeration (30-50 days) & vinification in 30hl barrels (austrian wood). The 2013 "Capalot - Vecchie Viti" seems pretty atypical compared with "classic" La Morra Baroli; I would have placed it either in Monforte or Novello. It comes rather earthy, balsamic and with a beautiful deep minerality. Dark fruit (cherry), iron, chalk, and dark-red roses, that give the wine still a lovely feminine touch. The tannins are very present, but silky and nobili. The vinification in big barrels is a terrific idea in order not to cover the very giving character of the fruit/flavors provided by the 'vecchie viti' in Burzi's "Capalot" vineyard.. In short I say: Kudos to Burzi! This is a stunner - and I can't wait too see this juice age and try it again with like age 10.

Producer info: Alberto Burzi is a quite young and "new" winemaker in La Morra and the Barolo area. 2013 is his second vintage. He makes two Baroli ("Capalot - Vecchie Viti" and a "base" one with fruit from "Rive", "Roncaglie" and "Rocchettevino", all La Morra. He also has a plot in "La Serra" which is supposed to be put in the Barolo "base" in the future; furthermore he makes a Langhe Nebbiolo "Runcaja" and and a Barbera d'Alba" Plaustra"). Burzi has a total of 7ha of land; 5ha are for Nebbiolo/Barolo. Ca. 20'000 bottles produced, of which 8'000 Barolo. — 6 years ago
