The 22-year-old vines in Rio Sordo are cultivated are situated on a south-facing slope at an altitude of 300-310 meters above sea level. The wine undergoes 20 days of skin contact, followed by at least 6 months of maturation in stainless steel vats and a minimum of 2 months of bottle fining. Superb Langhe Nebbiolo!!
Notes on the producer
Established in 1948, Cascina delle Rose sits on five hectares, of which three are planted with Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo. It is an incredibly immaculate and meticulously-run estate. The family practices organic farming — the utmost respect given to the earth — with all the vine care done manually. No herbicides are used, and they only use a minimal amount of copper and sulphur in the vineyard - aiming towards as minimal an environmental impact as possible.
