More like a Northern Rhine wine than an Italian white. The wine is very well made and a treat. It has a soft feel in the mouth yet with strong minerality, tartness and abundant fruit. the finish lingers as slightly unripened apple.

2020 Vietti Barolo Castiglione

4/22/2024 - Robmcl920 Likes this wine: 91 points

The '20 Castiglione is a pretty wine that stands out for its energy and exotic, tropical fruit tones. My sense of Vietti is that they may be moving towards a style with higher acidity than prior and more exotic / tropical fruit tones than before. I noticed this nearly across the board in '19 - in particular, the Barbaresco or Monvigliero are the two best examples of it that year. The '20 Castiglione continues the trend. I'm not aware of / sure if anything has actually changed in the winemaking, but this is how the wines have come across to me.

On the nose, I found a blast of fresh citrus / exotic tropical fruit notes, going beyond the common orange peel and more into passion fruit and fresh orange like notes. Alongside these exotic notes, I found more typical crunchy red berry fruit, red roses, and mint. From both the tropical fruit and the way the red berry fruit comes across, you immediately get the sense that this is going to be a high acid wine. On the palate, that's exactly what you get. The wine is medium in body with high acidity with red berry and citrus fruit, red florals, spice, and mint. There's a lot of tannin today that could use some time to integrate. The energy level here from the acidity is very high, almost overbearing, and I do wonder what happens to a wine with this fruit profile and acid level with time in the cellar. That said, it's attractive and I find it easy to drink this wine despite its intensity.

Notes of chocolate strawberries, tart cherries and rose. Tastes high in alcohol. Tannin character is not resolved yet. I would wait another couple years before opening. For an entry level Barolo it’s overpriced.

Medium-dark purple. Smelled a bit red fruited with some woody character, but tasting it the sour black cherries (think marasca) take over, with some additional earthy and leathery notes. Nice food-friendly Barbera acidic bite that fans out into mouth-filling medium body, medium-minus tannin, and finishes medium back on the cherries.

My third bottle of this vintage. Feels like it's starting to enter its tunnel, compared to the previous two bottles, needs a bit more time before balancing. Fine and dry tannins, the fruit is just right, cranberries, red cherries, tobacco, leather and roses. Wonderful minerality, and a long finish. Will last for many more years.

4/9/2024 - Klaus386 Likes this wine: 92 points

What a nice surprise. This was my first bottle of Timorasso grapes. Tasted twice, 4 nights apart.
2nd night this was the 2nd wine after opening a bottle of Chenin Blanc from Swartland. (I much preferred this Vietti)

Pale, lemon appearance.
Med+, developing aromas of lime, peach, honeysuckle, hay, wet stone, and pear.
High acidity but well balanced. Med body, med+ flavor intensity, med+ finish.
Very good wine that can be drunk now but is suitable for aging.

4/7/2024 - ElAzul Likes this wine: 92 points

Cork in pristine shape, bottle fill half inch above neck, color of medium ruby with definite orange on rim and body. Red fruit nose, prior note of camphor not present after six hours open. The fruit is more like a mix of baked cherry on the front of the mouth but then raspberry on the mid and back palate after 24 hours open but kept refrigerated overnight. The tannins are mellow now and anise notes are present and the finish is a subtle 30 seconds long. Just lovely nebbiolo fruit! The wine seems fully mature but probably has a lot more life left in it.

Beautiful crimson color, with just a little bricking at the edge. Terrific and expressive nose right out of the gate, with bright red fruits, earth, roses, and violets. Notes carry through on the palate with a great core of sweet fruit framed with more savory notes. Tannins are approachable now, but this is in no danger of fading soon. Finishes long, with earthy notes. Lovely wine.

Great straight out of the glass, pretty much at peak or close to it. Notes of red fruits on the palate, with a hint blueberries, dried rose petals and a medium finish with mushrooms, black tea. The tannins are still there, a little grippy. This has at most another 2-4 years to go. Great QPR

I had this at a pizza joint last evening and it went well with the pizza! This is a typically dry and somewhat tannic Dolcetto with the fruit in the background. Nevertheless, it has plumb, sorry cherry and blackberry notes. It has tart acidity and really requires some food to enjoy it at its fullest.

Dark ruby with suggestion of garnet. Nose initially smells like iron filings covered in dried blood. Offputting or fascinating? With time, the blood aromas settle in and nuances of garam masala, cherry, mint, violets and blueberry emerge. Mature flavor profile of grilled cherry and leather. Thinning. Drink up.

Gambero Rosso Tre Bicchieri Tasting (Bridgeport Arts Center - Chicago IL): Walkaround tasting with the producers. The kind of Barolo I enjoy, this isn't shy about its ripeness, but equally emphasizes its textural brightness. Lots here, this needs at least a decade in the cellar, two decades would be better.

Subdued nose with light earth and licorice notes. Lighter bodied with a mix of red and darker fruits. Some earthy notes again. The tannins have mostly softened. This bottle is decent but it seems a little diluted and the fruit has faded. I have a couple bottles left, and I’ll drink them sooner than later. Tajarin would be a good pairing.
