With fruit from the Barolo township, the 2010 Barolo Preda opens to a dark garnet color and immediate aromas of toasted hazelnut and baking spice. The Preda vineyard has light soils with a big limestone component. Supporting fruit layers are plush, concentrated and richly textured. The wine's real power is delivered to the palate where it shows tight tannins and a polished finish. Drink: 2016-2025.
Cascina Adelaide occupies it own school of Barolo winemaking that embraces modern techniques and a fruit-forward style. This estate shows particular confidence when it comes to the copious use of French oak. This style won't appeal to everyone but Cascina Adelaide boasts an unwavering support base of enthusiast fans. Among the single-vineyard expressions presented this year, the Barolo Fossati is the standout. Fruit comes from La Morra with veins of red and grey clay soils. That extra structure derived from the vineyard, combined with the subdued elegance of the vintage make for a knock out wine.
