The Baby Barolo with a Big Heart”

The 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo opens with that unmistakable lift of rose petals, sour cherry and a whisper of anise, pure, bright and beautifully transparent. On the palate it’s all crunchy red fruit, wild strawberry and pomegranate, threaded with fine chalky tannins and that classic Langhe snap of acidity. Elegance is the headline here: silky texture, subtle spice and a long, gently mineral finish that reminds you why Nebbiolo, even in its youth can feel so profound.

For when: you want Barolo energy without the wait or price tag.
Pairs with: truffle pasta, roast duck, or a pile of parmigiano shards.
If this wine were a mood it would be that golden late-afternoon moment when Piedmont turns soft and pink.

Cascina Sciulun is part of the Franco Conterno estate, a family with deep roots in the heart of Barolo, farming organically and championing the kind of purity Nebbiolo thrives on. Their Langhe bottling comes from younger vines in Monforte d’Alba, still serious terroir, crafted with a gentle touch to let the grape’s aromatic clarity shine. It’s a wine that wears its heritage lightly yet proudly, offering a glimpse of Barolo’s soul in a more immediate, utterly drinkable form.
