cascina delle rose is one of the denomination's brightest gems and its rio sordo is a textbook barbaresco. it has an alluring and multifaceted bouquet of lilac, violet and wisteria, along with hints of spice, truffle and earth. the palate is focused, with intense cherry and spice notes balanced by firm but fine tannins and freshness. it already shows ample complexity and will age beautifully.
