Cavallotto – Pinner Vino Bianco – 2023
Definitely an unconventional white wine, made from Pinot Noir grapes vinified in white. The grapes are harvested from the various plots located around the Bricco Boschis estate in Castiglione Falletto, then fermented in steel tanks at low temperatures for between 20 and 30 days; it is then aged in steel and, after bottling, another 3 months in the bottle. A white that will surprise you with its freshness, fragrance without lacking structure and good persistence.

Description
The Cavallotto winery is rich in history. It is located in Castiglione Falletto, and is one of the rare cases to be wholly owned by the Bricco Boschis cru, one of the most famous in the area.
The history of this vineyard dates back to the mid-1800s, right around the time of the birth of Barolo wine, thanks to the marquise Juliette Colbert Falletti di Barolo, who entrusted the work on the vineyard to Giuseppe Boschis; since then the hill has been named Bricco Boschis. In 1928 the entire property was purchased by Giacomo Cavallotto, creating the Bricco Boschis estate. From the 1940s the Cavallotto family began to make wine from their own grapes, but only from the 1960s would the name of the Bricco Boschis vineyard be mentioned in their Barolo. The story continues from generation to generation to the present day, where Alfio, Giuseppe and Laura maintain the family tradition and quality continuity of the wines. The winery is shrouded in a super-traditional aura, the aging rooms are underground, covered by tuff at a constant temperature of 15 degrees, and only large barrels are used to age the wines, especially for the Barolos. Even in the vineyard, maximum respect for the land and the plants, so much so that they were the first in the Langa to focus on non-interventionist agriculture, to the point of later being certified organic. Wines of class, of tradition, complex, without frills, but with a great capacity for evolution.
