Why We're Buying
Cavallotto Barolo Vignolo Riserva hails from a bucolic five-acre expanse on the Cavallotto property with southern exposure and 40-year-old vines. What makes this vintage special is its growing season. The 2015 summer was serene, producing mature, well-ripened fruit. After five years of aging in Slavonian oak botti, the Barolo offers investors a wine with high drinkability, classic structure, and aromatic elegance. The 2015 Cavallotto Barolo Vignolo Riserva has earned universal praise for its balletic balance and unmistakable grace. Effervescent notes of red cherries, strawberries, citrus, balsam, mint, and rose integrate beautifully into darker tones of minerality and earthiness. Meanwhile, the savory full body features a tightly wound core that promises to soften in the coming years. The Final Sip: With only 580 cases produced and extensive aging potential, 2015 Cavallotto Barolo Vignolo Riserva has all the makings of an investment-worthy cellar selection.
Critics Scores
Jeb Dunnuck
Lifted and savory aromatics initially jump out of the 2015 Barolo Riserva Vignolo, with graphite, incense, brushed leather, and dried sour cherry. Full and balanced, with dried currant, tobacco leaf, and clove, it has a powerful, noble structure. This is a wine with layered complexity that is hard to pin down. Drink 2024-2050.
Vinous
The 2015 Barolo Riserva Vignolo is a powerful, tightly wound wine that is going to need a few years to soften. Its gorgeous, translucent elegance is impossible to miss. Sweet red berry fruit, gravel, rose petal, mint, licorice and darker earthy tones all run through this compelling, beautifully layered Riserva. Impressive.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2015 Barolo Riserva Vignolo is a beautifully generous and richly layered wine. It opens first to dark fruit, cassis and dried cherry, but the bouquet takes you on an aromatic journey that remains very faithful to the basics of Barolo. The fruit cedes to dark spice, toasted hazelnut and dusty earth or potting soil. The wine is quite interesting and compelling in terms of mouthfeel. The structure shows a tannic pitch that is sufficient to tie it neatly together. Yet the fleshiness and generosity of the fruit serve to give it more volume and dimension. Fruit comes from a 1.96-hectare south-facing site on the Cavallotto family property in Castiglione Falletto with 40-year-old vines. Production is 7,326 bottles.
