Roero Rosso 'Valdovato' Cascina Fornace 2016

The Roero Rosso “Valdovato” by Cascina Fornace reveals all its finesse and spontaneity, an expression of Nebbiolo that is often overlooked and less frequented. It is easy to think of Barolo and Barbaresco when talking about Nebbiolo, and the Roero territory has often been unjustly overshadowed by the splendor of the "cousins" from the Langhe. Thus, some local realities, united by a shared intent and the same work ethic, decided to come together in "Solo Roero", a group that has helped to relaunch the name of the area, although the path is still arduous and not without difficulties. What is certain is that the local wines, in their best interpretations, are delicious, sunny, and often already more open and generous than liquids from more renowned denominations. The “Valdovato” by Cascina Fornace is one of the absolute reference points of the type, just like all the wines of Enrico Cauda, and at this price, we feel it is truly difficult to find better. Unmissable, withoutfor a bottle with a rather short duration, should it also be used gastronomically, with truly versatile pairings. Exemplary.
