Cascina della Rose produces some very good Barbaresco wines, and this Dolcetto is grown in an 8.5 hectare vineyard planted in 1958 on a hillside that also contains Nebbiolo vines used to produce Barbaresco. Cascina delle Rose admirably chooses to stick with its traditional Dolceto production. A Elizabeth is named after a woman who comes regularly to pick grapes and loves Dolcetto.
Beautiful medium light maroon. Red berries, Bing cherries. Very fresh and lively. Ripe fruit flavors. No oak, matured in stainless steel to preserve the lovely Dolcetto fruit. Reminds me that I don't drink enough Dolceto, an excellent choice for every day fare.
