Cavallotto Bricco Boschis Langhe Nebbiolo 2020

Cavallotto Fratelli is a pioneering Barolo producer, just south of Turin in Piedmont, Italy. Established in 1928, the family-owned winery has been producing wine from the Nebbiolo grape variety for mulitple generations.

Cavallotto has 24 hectares (60 acres) of vineyards, including a monopole over the highly regarded Bricco Boschis cru vineyard. Located in the Castiglione Falletto commune of Barolo, the plot has been organically farmed since the 1970s. Cavallotto divided this vineyard into three parcels: two plots are blended to make the flagship Barolo DOCG Bricco Boschis, and the third designated and bottled as a single cru riserva.

There are a handful of other wines produced from Chardonnay and Dolcetto with Nebbiolo and Barbera the most important varieties.

The term "Baby Barolo", while twee and overused, applies very well here.
