Tasting Notes: A captivating and expressive Barbaresco, the Rio Sordo from Cascina delle Rose showcases a bright ruby-red hue and intense aromas of raspberry and black cherry, interwoven with notes of licorice, sweet spices, and Mediterranean herbs. The palate is characterized by its elegant depth and concentrated structure, where fine, perfectly integrated tannins provide a lively freshness that balances the wine's fullness and warmth. While austere, the finish is persistent and imbued with a sense of grace, making this a profound expression of its terroir.
Estate History: Giovanna Rizzolio was one of the few women running a winery in the Langhe in the early 90’s, a pioneer for women winemakers in the region. She is the only one to release a Tre Stelle cru Barbaresco. Her sons Riccardo and Davide divide the winemaking and vineyard duties now. Located in the Rio Sordo Valley, this classic estate is organic, and sits right in front of the Rio Sordo cru with panoramic views of the Langhe. The family also runs an excellent bed and breakfast.
