Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Saturday, September 22, 2018 - 2018 Cavallotto visit with Giuseppe Cavallotto (Tenuta Bricco Boschis, Castiglione Falletto): Giuseppe noted that there is more clay in the soil at this site. A “very intense” nose said Mark. Fresh and breezy, with notes of soil, dry underbrush, black fruit and dark rose perfumes. On palate, huge concentration and power on entry. Also serious dry extract and density on mid palate. Tactile but silky tannins. A lot of ripe – but not over-ripe – mainly dark berry fruit. The 14.5% alcohol is not over-prominent. A brilliant Riserva. Cellar 3-5+ more years.
