The grapes come from vines aged between 7 and 40 years, cultivated on calcareous-clay soils and trained in guyot. The separate vinification of the individual crus, followed by aging for about 30 months in barrique and large barrels before blending, allows for the preservation of the characteristics of the different plots and the construction of a complex, balanced, and territorial profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a bright and deep ruby color. On the nose, earthy notes emerge, along with hints of red fruits and a still young and reserved aromatic texture, suggesting significant evolution ahead. On the palate, it is juicy, vigorous, and supported by a powerful and well-defined tannic structure. Freshness accompanies the sip and contributes to its dynamism, while the finish is long, firm, and characterized by returns of red fruit and sensations of gustatory tension. It is a classic, solid, and deep Barolo Castiglione DOCG 2016.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt pairs well with rich and structured dishes from the Piedmontese and Italian tradition, such as braised meats, roasts, game, feathered and fur game, as well as preparations with mushrooms and truffles. Excellent also with aged hard cheeses and flavorful long-cooked dishes. Its tannic strength and depth make it ideal for accompanying important menus, where the wine must support the complexity of the dish without losing elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eServing temperature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eBarolo Castiglione DOCG 2016 Vietti\u003c\/strong\u003e performs best at a serving temperature between \u003cstrong\u003e16 and 18°C\u003c\/strong\u003e. In a still youthful phase, it can benefit from a brief oxygenation before serving, useful for opening the bouquet and slightly softening the tannic impact. If served on special occasions, it is advisable to uncork the bottle with moderate advance to favor a better aromatic expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuying the \u003cstrong\u003eBarolo Castiglione DOCG 2016 Vietti\u003c\/strong\u003e means choosing a great Italian wine, capable of combining precision, depth, and typicity.
