Description
Roccheviberti Barolo Bricco Boschis 2016
Varietal: Nebbiolo
Bricco Boschis is a relatively large vineyard with western exposure sitting around 200-300 meters above sea level. Compared to Rocche di Castiglione, the soil here is much richer in heavy clay, resulting in lush fruit, intense color, solid structure and pronounced tannins, all of which contribute to longevity.
Laying claim to highly sought-after holdings in the heralded Barolo village of Castiglione Falletto, Claudio Viberti’s family has painstakingly tended to the vine since 1946. Claudio, a third-generation vigneron, has taken this winery to new heights since the release of his first vintage in 2003. His old-vine Barolo bottling from the heart of a legendary cru, Rocche di Castiglione, now commands a cult following.
