{"product_id":"cappellano-barolo-pie-rupestris-2018","title":"Cappellano, Barolo Piè Rupestris, 2018","description":"Pie Rupestris is Cappellano's Barolo in its purest Serralunga voice. The family calls it \"severe and authoritative, austere but generous,\" and it comes from one of the few houses in Barolo that still refuses to play the modern game. The name tells you what it is: Nebbiolo grafted onto American Vitis rupestris rootstock, planted in the late 1940s in Serralunga's Gabutti cru. Only the heart of the holding goes into this bottle, and every bit of Nebbiolo from the lower third of the slope goes into the family's Barolo Chinato. (Don't look for \"Gabutti\" on the label: the family left it off in protest when the cru's boundaries were expanded.) Augusto Cappellano, the fifth generation, works the way Teobaldo did before him. That means organic farming, native yeasts, very little sulfur, long fermentations, extended aging in big old botte, and bottling without filtration. It's about as traditional as Barolo gets, and that's exactly why people hunt for it.","brand":"Private","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50525009150009,"sku":"NYC-[CNSN]-TTSUMMER0826-092226-274-35","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Cappellano-Barolo-Pie-Rupestris-2018-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York_32f6c81f.jpg?v=1790154984","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/cappellano-barolo-pie-rupestris-2018","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
