Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo

What a magnificent wine, this red Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo! This Nebbiolo comes from Barolo vineyards, usually the youngest vines. The Cavallotto family winery is located on the famous Bricco Boschis hill near Castiglione Falletto. The vineyard's quality was recognized and acted upon as early as the 1970s. The vineyard is farmed exclusively organically with complete respect for nature. In the cellar, the traditional style is pursued to produce expressive, ageable wines.

The Italian family business Cavallotto

The farm, officially established in 1928, along with the vineyards and winery, forms the beating heart of the Cavallotto family's work. The family personally oversees all winemaking activities, from the vineyards to the cellars. The 23 planted hectares of the family farm have a much longer history, dating back to the 18th century. In 1946, the grandchildren joined the family business, taking over the entire production of the estate, including vinification for sale. They managed to elevate the winery to an even higher level, something we can still be grateful for today. What fantastic wines we have in our range, thanks to Cavallotto. Langhe Nebbiolo is made with Nebbiolo grapes from Bricco Boschis, Vignolo, Codana, and Pernanno. The wine is fermented with indigenous yeast. The skins that rise to the surface are regularly immersed, and the juice is pumped over regularly. The wine is aged for 15 to 18 months in Slavonian oak barrels. The wine remains in the bottle for an additional six months before release.

The typical aromas of the Langhe Nebbiolo

Excellent structure with typical Bricco Boschis aromas of red fruit and flowers, along with herbs, all open and intense. Excellent aging potential! This red wine pairs wonderfully with, for example, sliced ​​meat appetizers like prosciutto or salami, but also with beef tartare and vitello tonnato. This Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo is also delicious with pasta, simple red meat dishes, or seasoned cheeses.
