The Cavallotto family is the chief owner of the beautiful Bricco Boschis cru in the Castiglione Falletto district, where they have been growing Nebbiolo since 1929 and bottling their own wine since 1948. These richly structured wines place emphasis on elegance and longevity, attributable to excellent vineyards in the Bricco Boschis and Vignolo crus and traditional long maturation periods in large Slavonian-oak casks.

Tasting Notes
Aromas of red fruits, flowers and spice rise from the glass, with flavours of raspberry, cherry and redcurrant. There is the distinct boxy structure of Freisa - it is not a truly elegant wine - but the wine is one for consuming with gusto. The finish is bright and lively. The Freisa 2017 will easily take a few years in bottle and will show good evolution toward a finer character and structure after another 3 years in bottle.
