The 2016 classic is without doubt one of the finest in Barolo, certainly since no less than 2010 which is comparable within the distinctive high quality produced by way of each Barolo and Castiglione Falletto.
Many earlier vintages have tended to favour a selected appellation or soil kind; Tortonian soils versus Serravallian soils; cooler or hotter expositions and so forth whereas the 2016 wines appear to have carried out effectively throughout the entire area.
