Fermentation in stainless steel occurs over 15 days, with daily cap submersion for extraction of flavor and color."

Varietal Composition: 100% Nebbiolo
Appellation: Barolo DOCG
Aging: 24 months in oak casks. The wine was blended in stainless steel tanks 8 months before bottling.

94 Points - Wine Advocate
"The 2009 Barolo Castiglione delivers a radiant but subdued quality with polished notes of dry mineral, black fruit, tar, licorice, leather and many more levels of complexity. This entry-level Barolo demonstrates that great results are achieved in 2009. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025.

If forced to inhabit a desert island that only served the wines of a single producer, I would want Luca Currado to be that supplier. He excels at everything he does from his castle perch at the heart of Castiglione Falletto. Despite the difficult 2009 season, his wines remain extraordinary. In fact, they are among the best I tasted from the vintage." -ML, 7/27/2013
