Cascina delle Rose is our go-to when it comes to exquisite, fly-under-the-radar Barbaresco. Their Rio Sordo, from a sandy, limestone plot planted in 1978, is redolent of spice, Morello cherry and blood orange. Although the critics' scores are always high for Cascina delle Rose, numbers don't begin to tell the story of how fine their Barbaresco truly is. Organic.
