"Barolo Castiglione definitely balances the open, radiant personality of the vintage with considerable underlying structure. Warm, dense and full-bodied, the 2016 Barolo Castiglione flows effortlessly on the palate with generous fruit and fabulous overall balance.
Tasting Notes: by garnet red color with flashes of blood. The nose releases captivating hints of assorted berries, lilac and wild rose, juniper, Darjeeling tea and oriental spicy notes. Broad, enveloping mouth distracted by vertical acid-soapy plug, highlights copious but unobtrusive tannins.
Pairings: Perfect with stewed meat, game, roasts, cheeses.
