Cappellano Rupestris Barolo 2001
Editorial Review by Gregory Dal Piaz:
At first this is all about leather and ass on the nose, possible eass in leather on a hot day. Air brings out some minty notes and earthy beetroot and radish aromas along with a flash of minerality. Rich and chewy in the mouth with with lots of black cherry and black raspberry fruit. There really is lovely fruit here, a bit herbal, herb stemmy, and tree barky, but also long and layered through the mineral and slightly bitter finish. So it stinks a bit? Give this time.
