April 23, 2024 - gave the glass air for over an hour. wine softened up considerably showing rose and tar on the nose. beautiful cherry fruit with just a hint of bitter almond on the finish. a great langhe nebbiolo but not quite as wonderful as the 2021. great depth of fruit from not necessarily all younger vines. love the line-up of wines from cavallotto. can't wait to taste the 2021 baroli this is top of class as far as langhe nebbiolo goes!

March 9, 2024 - Tempting and fresh, slightly reductive, bouquet, the palate is savory and complex with forest strawberries, crushed cherries, bright red fruit and hints of cedar. The lifted and versatile fruit together with medium tannins and beautiful acidity make this a well structured LN. I liked the 2019 and 2020 vintages but this is the one that makes me exited, a near perfect Nebbiolo experience considering the current drinkability and price range.

March 2, 2024 - Really good LN, structured but with nice deep cherry fruit as well, all riding a solid beam of acid. Not as tannic as the Barolo, but still with plenty of tannin and acid. This is better than a good deal of Barolos. Lovely stuff. Probably best in 3 years or so, but can be enjoyed now with a decant and followed over time.

January 26, 2024 - Cavallotto Tasting at Biondivino (Biondivino, San Francisco): Oh, this was a very good Nebbiolo. Alfio Cavallotto called it a real baby Barolo, and he wasn't exaggerating. Clear Nebbiolo nose, floral and red fruited, well balanced palate with some structure. Tart and bright with good vibrancy. Good now, also a possible mid-term ager.

January 3, 2024 - Red cherry, raspberry, thyme, burnt orange on the nose. Pronounced intensity of fruit on the palate. Very high acid and tannin. Objectively I’m not sure it’s better but what I love about this vintage, even more than the 2019 I had last week, is the representation of the Bricco Boschis MGA. You can really sense the heritage in the 2021. Outstanding Langhe Nebbiolo.
