The Story
An elegant and finessed Barolo from the celebrated Coste di Rose cru, this wine opens with aromas of hibiscus, dried rose petals, red berries, black cherry, mint, white pepper, and sweet spice. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, offering vibrant red fruit, floral lift, chalky minerality, and bright acidity framed by finely chiseled tannins. Graceful yet structured, it finishes long and harmonious with lingering notes of cherry, spice, iron, and crushed stone.
Food Pairing: Braised veal, truffle risotto, roasted game birds, mushroom dishes, and aged Parmigiano Reggiano.
96 Points - Wine Spectator
A beam of fresh cherry and strawberry permeates this graceful red, driven by a vibrant structure. Flashes of sun-kissed hay, iron and mint add depth as this cruises to a lingering conclusion. Very harmonious, with a chalky sensation on the long, complex aftertaste.

Aged for 28 months in cask, the bright ruby 2020 Barolo Coste Di Rose reveals blood orange citrus, cola, ripe strawberries and raspberries. Medium-bodied, with finely tensioned tannins and a clean, mouthwatering finish. Drink 2026-2046.
94 Points - James Suckling
White pepper, dried roses, berries and mineral on the nose. Really elegant and chalky on the palate with medium to full body and a linear finish. Pure and driven. Drink or hold.
94 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Barolo of remarkable elegance and complexity. Lifted aromas of mixed wild berries, candied rose petals, cinnamon and whole clove are accompanied by warm, earthy notes. Tart cherries and cranberries dominate the palate, with woodsy undertones and chewy tannins that provide heft without overpowering.
