Drink 2017, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2017
The 1970 Barolo is subtle, delicate and fully resolved. Hints of dried cherry, tobacco, cranberry, orange peel and spice give the wine gentle layers of nuance. All things considered, the 1970 is attractive, but most wines from this vintage, if well stored, offer quite a bit more depth.
About the producer

Cappellano
Serralunga d’Alba’s Cappellano is one of Barolo’s most legendary producers, producing ultra-traditional styles of Nebbiolo. Made famous by Teobaldo and now in the hands of his son Augusto, the estate is best known for its Barolo Piè Franco, a wine from ungrafted vines in the Gabutti Cru.
