Tart and sweet cranberry, lavender, black tea, rosemary, dusty slate. Very astringent and tart on the palate. Very tight.

The 2019 Barolo Bricco Boschis is an absolutely gorgeous wine that needs plenty of air to open. Bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, rose petal, cinnamon, star anise and mint all grace this mid-weight, wonderfully expressive Barolo. It has been some years since I have tasted a Cavallotto Barolo with this kind of translucent old-school classicism. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2023)

Ruby with a bouquet of fruit, spices, leather, oak and rose petals. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with notes of pepper, mint and cacao. Long finish, nice balance with fine soft tannins ending with earthy sweet notes. Just starting to drink now! Will continue to age.

Great aroma, a touch less body than expected. Fills out nicely after a couple days. Tannins are still firm, but fruit is starting to fade a bit, at least in this bottle.

Love this. Still quite youthful after 25 years. Roses, tar, new leather. Ripe and grippy tannins

Bright orange colour, expressive nose of coffee, orange peel, anis, scrub herbs, medium bodied and the harsh Nebbiolo tannins. Good
