Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Castellero 2021

Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Castellero 2021 is a classic single-vineyard Barolo from Piedmont, made from 100% Nebbiolo. Elegant, structured and built for ageing, this is a superb bottle for collectors, Italian wine lovers and anyone looking for a serious red wine with real depth.

The Castellero vineyard sits within the Barolo DOCG and is known for producing refined, aromatic wines with balance, perfume and fine tannic structure. The 2021 vintage shows beautiful notes of red cherry, raspberry, rose petals, liquorice, tobacco, dried herbs and spice, with a long, savoury finish.

On the palate, this Barolo is powerful yet precise, with vibrant red fruit, firm Nebbiolo tannins and excellent freshness. It will reward careful cellaring, but can also be enjoyed now with decanting alongside rich food.
