Vietti Barolo 2021 750ml is a classic expression of Barolo crafted from 100% Nebbiolo sourced from numerous vineyard sites throughout the appellation. Formerly known as Barolo Castiglione, this celebrated bottling brings together individually vinified vineyard parcels to capture the complexity and character of the broader Barolo region.

Expressive aromas and flavors of plum, ripe cherry, blackberry and rose are joined by violet, spice, licorice, tobacco and alpine herbs. The palate is rich and structured yet refined, with beautifully integrated tannins and a long, savory finish.

Each vineyard parcel is vinified separately, with approximately three to four weeks of fermentation and skin contact. Following malolactic fermentation in wood, the wine is aged for approximately 30 months in large oak barrels with a small portion in barriques before the individual components are assembled for the final blend.

Pair with braised beef, osso buco, roast lamb, game, mushroom risotto, truffle dishes or aged cheeses. The outstanding 2021 vintage offers impressive depth and structure for enjoying after decanting or further cellaring.

"In this vintage, the Rocche vines saw more stress compared to Lazzarito. The nose of the 2021 Barolo Rocche Di Castiglione is deeper and spicier on the nose with aromas of rosemary, fresh lavender, cherries, grenadine, and anise. The structure is more foursquare and noble, with ripe tannins and a more muscular feel throughout the palate. It demands time in bottle before drinking over the following 20 years."

"A graceful wine with cinnamon, earth, strawberries, sweet violets and leesy complexity. There is a lot of fruit depth, with a full body, lifted acidity and dense, ripe, velvety tannins. The finish is polished yet tight. Drinkable now, but best from 2027."
