The wine

A beautiful Barolo from the cru Ravera within the municipal boundaries of Barolo. Very drinkable, all these from 2018. Aromas of spices, ripe dark fruit such as cherry and blackcurrant and dry notes of undergrowth. Tannin nicely present. Harmonious mouthfeel with a persistent aftertaste.

CAGLIERO

Beautiful family business located just south of Barolo. If you are talking about authenticity, then you have come to the right place with the Cagliero family. Time has stood still there and they would like to keep that.
Father, mother and son Stefano run their cantina as it has been done for generations, full of passion and passion. They produce wonderfully unique wines of high quality. Stefano is the key player in wine making and his father helps him with it, while his mother runs the agriturismo located near the company.
In addition to a lot of other tasty wines, they make a Barolo Ravera, a Barolo Terlo and a Barolo Ravera Riserva. With the Riserva version we immediately have a prize winner. One of the finest Barolos we have tasted.
The story goes that the top secret recipe for their Barolo Chinato (a herbal drink with Barolo as its main ingredient) was found years later on an old beam in the attic, where it had been written down by Stefano's great-grandmother.

Cagliero produces almost 50,000 bottles per year and works with both barrique and tonneaux, but uses large wooden barrels for maturation for the Barolo line. The Dolcetto comes from the vineyard that used to belong to the nonna.

Remarkable; They use green pruning for their Barbera and their Langhe Bianco is an excellent blend of Arneis, Favorita and Sauvignon.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of ripe red cherry, dried roses, violets, and subtle balsamic notes. Elegant and powerful on the palate, with ripe tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, refined finish. A classic Cannubi with finesse and depth.

Food Pairing

Wonderful with pappardelle with game ragout, roasted quail, and veal with sage jus. Also particularly lovely with porcini risotto, truffle dishes, and aged cheeses such as Castelmagno. Serve at 17 °C.

The wines are elegant and structured, with notes of red fruit, flowers, and earthy nuances, and they develop beautifully over the years.<!--en-->Fratelli Barale stands for calm, honest Barolo – rooted in family, history, and terroir.<!--en-->

Vineyard

Originating from Cannubi in Barolo, one of the most renowned MGAs in the area. The southeastern exposure and calcareous, fossil-rich soil give the Nebbiolo elegance, freshness, and a refined structure.

Vinification & Ageing

Traditionally made with spontaneous fermentation and approximately 30 days of maceration in large wooden vats. The wine is then aged for three years in medium-sized French oak barrels, followed by at least 12 months of bottle aging. This long maturation ensures harmony and complexity.

Ageing Potential

The 2015 has now developed beautifully, combining ripe fruit with fresh acidity and refined tannins. Attractive to drink now, but it can develop further. Can be cellared until approximately 2035–2040.
