Sweet blueberries, wild flowers, spring herbs and orange zests are some of the flavors that emerge. These aromas and flavors enrich a silky texture that creates an immediate and appealing Barolo, with sweet tannins, firm elegance and outstanding class.

“The medium red 2020 Barolo Cascina Nuova is spiced and fruity with notes of ripe grenadine, pink peppercorn, dried apricots, and polished leather. Open and approachable, it offers ripe, supple tannins, even acidity, and a clean finish with good length.”
