Cavallotto, Barolo Bricco Boschis, 2001
Cult Castiglione Falletto traditionalism from a great vintage. Cavallotto farms Bricco Boschis as a near-monopole, and this is the estate's standard expression of that hill — Nebbiolo from across the cru, given the same uncompromising treatment as the famous Vigna San Giuseppe Riserva: long maceration, very long aging in Slavonian botti, and the patience that defines the Cavallotto family. 2001 is one of the great classical Piedmont vintages of the modern era, and at twenty-four years on the bottle, this Barolo has slipped into the heart of its drinking window — tar, dried rose, sweet earth, and that haunting Castiglione Falletto perfume. A textbook traditional Barolo at peak.
