Score 83/100 · Drink 2001-2007, Robert Parker, Jun 2001
The 1997 Barolo Gabutti is a light, straightforward, medium-bodied effort displaying cherry fruit, but not a great deal of complexity, texture, and length. Drink it over the next 4-6 years. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620

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.
