Luca Currado describes 2010 as "a fantastic, elegant vintage for Barolo," while 2009 is "a very good vintage: if you waited too long you got a decadent quality in your wines. The brown spice character of the 2009s can also make the wines seem a bit dry." As a rule, Currado picks on the early side because he wants "a signature of terroir," but he also said if his wines have a signature, "it's acidity and long aging potential." This extraordinary estate has access to 15 of the top 20 crus of Barolos, notes Currado. In addition to the four crus he routinely bottles on their own, he vinifies and raises 11 others separately for three years, then does a series of blind tastings to select the best of them for his Castiglione bottling, which he has trademarked. Most of the rest go into the estate's Nebbiolo Perbacco, which Currado told me is "really our regular Barolo." For budget-minded nebbiolo lovers, this is a bottling to seek out.

For the 2010s, Currado opted to give the Barberas longer time in oak, with more emphasis on cask and less on smaller French oak barriques.
