Cappellano, Barolo "Pie Rupestris", 2016 (1.5L)
A true expression of the Barolo terroir, this wine from Cappellano’s "Pie Rupestris" vineyard offers a captivating balance of intensity and elegance. Deep and layered, it unveils a symphony of dark fruit, including blackberries and plums, intertwined with earthy nuances of tobacco and leather.
On the palate, the tannins are firm, providing a robust structure, yet the wine’s texture remains silky, allowing the fruit to shine through. There’s a lovely interplay of freshness from the acidity and richness from the oak, offering depth without overpowering the natural flavors. The finish is lengthy, leaving traces of spice, dark fruit, and a mineral edge.
This Barolo pairs beautifully with roasted meats, wild game, or rich, earthy dishes like truffle risotto. Though it’s enjoyable now, it will only continue to improve with age, revealing more nuance and complexity over the years.
