It’s impossible not to be excited by this wine. Showing more structure and grit compared to the others in this portfolio, the Cascina delle Rose 2021 Barbaresco Rio Sordo boasts etched mineral notes that recall pencil shavings or crushed rock. Those frame a pretty core of delicate berry, wild cherry and blue flower. The effect is ample, elegant and streamlined. The wine finishes with a fine, silky texture. This is a 3,800-bottle release.

The 2021 Barbaresco Rio Sordo is the most finessed of the wines in this range. Everything here speaks to nuance. Gentle floral and spice overtones meld into a core of dark-toned Nebbiolo fruit. This gracious, decrepitly understated Barbaresco has so much to offer. The 2021 is a blend of two blocks, one of which dates back to the 1950’s and sees submerged cap maceration in the cellar. This is class personified.
