"The 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo from Cavallotto is a lovely wine, starting with its aromas of red berry, wild rose, hay and peach pit. Elegant and fresh, the palate offers succulent strawberry, bitter orange, star anise and pink peppercorn before an almost salty finish. Made from the estate's youngest Nebbiolo vines and aged for 15-18 months in Slavonian oak casks, it has lithe tannins and surprisingly fresh acidity for the vintage."

"The 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo from Cavallotto is brimming with personality, starting with its enticing aromas of violet, ripe dark-skinned berry, new leather and forest floor. Delicious and full-bodied, the smooth palate features crushed black raspberry, succulent Morello cherry, cake spice and truffle."

"An expressive and solidly hewn red, featuring strawberry, cherry, rosemary, earth and iron aromas and flavors. Firms up as the flavors fade gracefully on the extended aftertaste. Drink now through 2029. 650 cases made, 220 cases imported."

"The Cavallotto 2021 Langhe Nebbiolo (with 20,000 bottles made) takes this easy-drinking category of wine to the next level. This is an impeccably balanced wine with intact primary fruit, lots of wild cherry and berry, licorice, rose and elegant earthy or rustic sensations. The tannins are on the dry side. You get enough pleasure to pop the cork tonight with your favorite home-cooked meal."

"Mid to deep youthful ruby. Beautifully perfumed cherry and raspberry-coulis nose with savoury spice notes. Still a little compact but with great aromatic length and bags of gravelly tannins. Very long and compelling. Ageworthy stuff. (WS) 14.5%"
