點擊次數：1378

This wine opens to aromas of cured meat that take away from the most delicate parts of the Nebbiolo grape. The Sordo 2016 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione shows savory spice, leather and tobacco. The fruit you do get is dark and black, with plums and blackberries. There are also some tones of balsam or medical herb, with cola and dark licorice. It shows youthful tannins and firm structure that is characteristic Castiglione Falletto, where this vineyard is located. Only 4,500 bottles were made.

There are thorny, almond skin and bitter tones to the hot-vintage 2011 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione, with tar and licorice and road paving as well. It's a bit sticky and heavy. The 14.5% alcohol content adds power at the back.
