"Cavallotto's 2015 Langhe Nebbiolo is a terrific wine available at a price point far below Barolo or Barbaresco. This is a simple and honest expression of the mighty Piedmont grape that delivers extra succulence and primary fruit. You will recognize aromas of black cherry and wild rose with some tangy spice on the close. This is an elastic wine in terms of bottle production. Because the fruit can be used to make Barolo, this wine fluctuates greatly in terms of numbers vintage to vintage. For example, 26,000 bottles were produced in 2015, but that was cut to 6,000 in the 2016 vintage. Cavallotto was so happy with the 2016 fruit, they happily made more Barolo instead. On the bright side, that means more high-quality Barolo fruit went into this 2015 Langhe Nebbiolo."
