Barale Fratelli 2004 Vigna Castellero (Barolo)

Country: Italy / Vigna Castellero
Variety: Nebbiolo Piedmont
Winery: Barale Fratelli / Barolo

The 15-acre Castellero vineyard farmed by Fratelli Barale lies directly northeast of the town of Barolo. This is a pleasantly sweet-smelling wine with generous aromas of Christmas spice, ginger and cinnamon behind wild berries and forest floor. It’s a youthful and fun interpretation with firm tannins and a long, drying finish.
