An incredibly aromatic Barolo with very typical Castiglione red fruits, tart currants and strawberry, with anise and complexing sappy notes. This wine is made from the oldest vines off the Cru (planted 1943) and some more recent plantings in 1992, and a mix of both the Lampia and Michet Clones. Post a 30-day Fermentation /Maceration, the 2012 spent its first 12 months in French Barrique (mostly used), then its second period in Slavonian Botti. Sweet, persistent and long with focus, it then opens to roses and liquorice. There is an earthy, fennel seed undertone, inviting you to go back and forth from a fascinating, evolving nose to an expansive, but focused palate. - Primavera.
