With fruit sourced not too far from the winery headquarters, the Cascina Adelaide 2016 Barolo Preda offers a steady and sure-footed expression ofNebbiolo that finds stability in equal parts dark fruit, spice, licoriceand ferrous earth. There's a nice balance here, as if to suggest thatthe wine made closest to home is the easiest to approach and understand.That easy read of the Nebbiolo grape gives this release of 12,000bottles a slightly more immediate drinking window.
A opulent, exotic red with ripe berries, plums and hints of toffee and flowers. Full-bodied, round and ripe tannins and a long, savory finish.This young red has so much going for it. Give it some more time to seeit all. Better after 2022.
Was der sympathische Unternehmer Amabile Drocco innerhalb weniger Jahre in Barolo hingezaubert hat, ist schlicht umwerfend. Die Kellerei Adelaide ist unterhalb des Dorfes Barolo wunderbar in die hügelige Landschaft eingebettet, top modern, zweckmässig und bis ins kleinste Detail durchdacht. Unterstützt wird Amabile durch ein motiviertes Team, das wie er keine Kompromisse eingeht und keinen Aufwand scheut.
