Boroli del Comune di Castiglione Falletto

Boroli Barolo del Comune di Castiglione Falletto is a village Barolo drawn entirely from the family’s own vineyards in the heart of the appellation, a commune long prized for its balance of structure and perfume. East-, west- and south-west-facing Nebbiolo on clay-limestone soils with touches of sand are harvested by hand around mid-October, then broken down into micro-parcels so that each plot and ripeness band is picked, fermented and aged separately before blending. Fermentation and submerged-cap maceration in stainless steel can run to 30 days, followed by at least 18 months in large oak and further bottle ageing, giving a Barolo that marries supple tannins with depth and freshness rather than sheer power. In the glass, recent vintages are noted for aromas of cherry and raspberry, dried rose, herbs and subtle spice, with medium-bodied, savoury palates and fine, chalk-edged tannins, making this a classic, village-marked Barolo that drinks well from release but is built to evolve over the next decade and beyond.
