A soulful Barolo from the small family estate of Santamaria in the hills of La Morra where generations have tended Nebbiolo vines and where ancient marl and limestone soils whisper of time and sea. The 2018 Capalot blossoms from hand‑harvested fruit and slow, thoughtful vinification that honours tradition and patience. In the glass it offers perfumed roses and spice, red fruit and a hint of licorice, while the palate reveals vibrant energy, elegant structure and graceful tannins that carry echoes of Piedmont’s foggy mornings and warm afternoons. This is a wine of quiet depth and enduring charm, a bottle that speaks of place, history and devotion.
