CASCINA BARBARESCO DOCG RIO SORDO 2019
Barbaresco // Italy

The 2019 is an absolute stunner. A wine with considerable complexity and depth, accompanied by elegance and finesse. Think crushed red cherries and blackberries, violets and sweet spices.

The story of Cascina delle Rose began after WWII – with Giovanna's grandparents, Beatrice and Ferdinando Rizzolio. The two fell in love with the property – struck by it’s panoramic hills against the backdrop of the Italian Alps. In 1974, Giovanna took over the  farm. Aided by her husband Italo and their young sons Davide and Riccardo, they tend the 3 hectares of vines as sympathetically and naturally as possible.

In 1992, a close family friend was struck by an unusual interaction between Patata (their dog), Mimì (their cat) and a swallow at play during a visit. This inspired their logo and has appeared on every bottle since.
