Cappellano, Barolo Otin Fiorin - Pie Franco, 2011
In the heart of Barolo, Cappellano has created a timeless expression of Nebbiolo with their Barolo Otin Fiorin - Pie Franco 2011. Sourced from one of the most iconic vineyards in the Langhe, the Pie Franco vineyard is known for its old vines, which impart deep complexity and structure to the wines. The 2011 vintage brings out a balance of boldness and refinement, a wine that will continue to evolve over the years.
The nose is captivating, with rich aromas of ripe dark fruit—blackberries, plums, and black cherries—balanced by the fragrant presence of dried roses and a hint of sweet spice. Beneath these aromas, subtle earthy tones of tobacco, leather, and herbs start to develop, adding depth and intrigue. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a firm structure. The tannins are powerful but smooth, creating a textured mouthfeel that feels both rich and elegant. The acidity is well-integrated, enhancing the wine’s freshness and balancing the intensity of the fruit. The finish is long, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spices, and a touch of earthiness that speaks to the terroir of the Pie Franco vineyard.
This wine is a natural match for rich dishes like braised meats, truffle risotto, or aged cheeses. While it is wonderfully expressive now, the wine’s structure ensures it will continue to age gracefully, revealing even more complexity over the next decade. Cappellano’s Barolo Otin Fiorin - Pie Franco 2011 is a true reflection of Barolo—a wine that offers both power and elegance, with the potential to age beautifully and reward the patient.
