Giacomo Fenocchio, Barolo Castellero, 2013
A chance to get familiar with one of Barolo's lesser-known crus. Giacomo Fenocchio is an unsung traditionalist who ages everything in large Slavonian casks and bottles his sites separately, and Flatiron has called his Castellero the perfect vehicle for learning a cru few people know. Located in the commune of Barolo, Castellero tends toward a refined, aromatic, mid-weight style. The 2013 was a glorious, structured classic vintage that Flatiron singled out to show this producer at his best. Now maturing, it drinks well with a decant and will continue to develop.
