SH | Castiglione Falletto has sweet/savoury aromas like raspberry jam and Maldon sea salt, Round savoury, with a salty drying finish. Not as rich and lush as la Morra but with the combination of some ripe black cherry and the savoury, sea saltiness of Serralunga. Castiglione Falletteo is often described as the crossover point between Searralungo and La Morra because the soils here begin to transition between the two. Roundeed, subtle and well put together with a savoury, dry lqoirice finishDrink Dates: 2025 - 20232. 92
AJ | Very transparent and translucent, with a light garnet core Lifted, though just a touch warm and dry-grassy, Lacks roundness and vivacity of fruit. Similar on the palate, so a slightly dry wine in which you notice the firm tannins more than you might wish to, and the fruit is set back somewhat. On the plus side, it is concentrated and commanding, so if you like that dryer, less exuberant style this might be worth a look. It will last a decade for sure before the tannins get the upper hand; there is supporting acidity, too, is slightly hard style.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2034. 88
MP | Attractive nose showing ripe red fruit including wild strawberry, cherry and cranberry allied to black fruit notes of blackberry, blackcurrant and black cherry. The palate shows a lovely blend of acidity and tannins that support the fruit and suggest good potential for future development. There is a slight vegetal note on the nose that stops it from getting a higher score.Drink Dates: 2027 - 2032. 94
