Cappellano Barolo Piè Franco 2012 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard Nebbiolo from the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, northern Italy. The wines of Cappellano are considered to be some of the most uncompromising ‘old-school’ Barolos available in the market. The cult wine Piè Franco is produced from a Nebbiolo parcel planted on its own roots in 1989 in the Gabutti cru of Serralunga d’Alba. An ethereal wine that harks back to what Barolo may have tasted like before the Phylloxera blight struck European vineyards, necessitating the grafting of vines on to resistant American rootstocks. On the 2012. "The 2012 Barolo Otin Fiorin Pie Franco is so beautiful, so sensual. Red fruit and floral notes soar out of the glass in a perfumed, ethereal Barolo that dazzles. The 2012 are so expressive of their relative styles – the Rupestris offers more volume, while the Franco is all about subtle shadings of Nebbiolo fruit and aromatics. They are both among the most captivating wines of the vintage." Vinous, 2020
