"Smooth and laced with cherry, raspberry, rose and mineral flavors, this red is balanced and open. Hints of licorice and spices add interest, while the main impression is of finesse and purity. Could be a little more persistent yet still lingers nicely. Best from 2027 through 2043. 300 cases made, 60 cases imported." -Wine Spectator

93 POINTS

"The orange peel vibrancy dominates this wine on the nose, which is loaded with dried cherries, earth, smashed violets and balsamic depth. Complex on the palate, with firm, dusty tannins that are muscular yet ripe, crisp, zesty acidity and a medium body. The savory finish is a bit austere. Try after 2-3 years." -James Suckling

92 POINTS

"Open on the nose, it reveals notes of strawberries, cherries, currants, rosemary, and cloves. Medium-bodied, it unfolds on the palate with grace and character. Best from 2026." -Raffele Vecchione

About the Producer

After a highly successful engineering career, Amabile Droco achieved his lifetime's ambition when he purchased an old farmhouse and the accompanying vineyards in the heart of the village of Barolo in 1999. The employment of a top new winemaking team and the construction of an incredible new subterranean winery had a predictably positive effect on the quality of the wines produced. What really sets Cascina Adelaide apart, however, is their vineyard holdings and their commitment to demonstrating the diversity of the terroirs within the Barolo DOCG. Journalists have been quick to recognize the fantastic quality of the wines with a number of the wines awarded 95 points from Wine Spectator as well as consistently coming out on top in Decanter tastings. All of Cascina Adelaide’s grapes are hand harvested and sorted before a 12-hour stay in the winery’s drying room to remove any residual moisture on the grapes. From there, the fruit is destemmed and lightly crushed in preparation for their roughly two-week fermentation and maceration in tank. Following primary, the wine is aged for 24 months in oak barrels, where secondary fermentation occurs. The wine is then bottled for a minimum of 3 years of further aging before release.
