Giovanni Manzone Description
Giovanni Manzone Barolo Castelletto is a complex, pleasant, and balanced red wine crafted from Nebbiolo grapes in the Langhe region. This exceptional wine hails from a single vineyard with a unique east-south-east exposure, allowing for optimal ripening and a truly remarkable taste.
The Giovanni Manzone Barolo Castelletto boasts a captivating aroma, revealing the intricate craftsmanship behind its production. With slow macerations and gentle polyphenolic extraction, the wine develops a rich, full-bodied flavor, featuring notes of dark fruit, earthiness, and well-integrated tannins. Aged for three years in casks and rested in concrete tanks, the wine achieves a harmonious balance that lingers on the palate.
The Barolo Castelletto DOCG's complexity and depth make it an ideal companion for a variety of dishes. Pair this wine with savory meat dishes like braised beef, game, or roasted lamb. Its earthy undertones also complement mushroom risotto, truffle-infused pasta, and aged cheeses. Enjoy the versatile and sophisticated Giovanni Manzone Barolo Castelletto and elevate your dining experience.
Antonio Galloni: 96 Points
The 2017 Barolo Castelletto captures all of the savory and mineral complexity of this high-altitude site. Ethereal and gracious, the Castelletto has so much to offer. Pine, mint, blood orange, crushed raspberry and star anise are all finely sculpted throughout. This is one of the best Barolos i have ever tasted from Manzone. Don't miss it.
