NR (Cappellano does not allow scores) Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Barolo Rupestris is usually a bigger wine than the Franco. It is again in 2018, with more fruit but also more tannin. Accordingly, it may need a bit more time to come into its own. Iron, cedar, white pepper, tobacco and blood orange give the Rupestris a level of aromatic intensity that is not always present in this wine. The 2018 is gorgeous, but it's a Rupestris that is only going to blossom in the cellar. Many years ago, Baldo Cappellano asked me not to score his wines, so all Cappellano wines show up on our database as NR. Drink 2030-2043 (Feb 2022)."
