Cascina Adelaide began in 1817 as a group of vine growers owning vineyards in two of the most prestigious crus, Cannubi and Preda. The estate was bought over 20 yrs ago by Amabile Drocco who immediately updated the estate by building a modern underground cellar, introducing a new barrel system and more than doubling the size of the vineyards. Drocco’s father was a vine grower in a small village not far from Barolo.
A vineyard blend from 4 separate plots, producing a ruby red color with brick reflections. On the nose, wild cherry and raspberry nectar fruit aromas combine with oak and spice nuances. It is aged in large barrels. The palate is wonderfully balanced with dark cherry and berry fruit flavors, oaky spice and firm tannins that leads to a long, dry finish.
