Cascina Baricchi Rose delle Casasse, Barbaresco Riserva DOCG, Italy 2017 Locations Wine the 2010 Lafon-Rochet comes boundingThe 2017 Barbaresco Riserva Rose delle Casasse is a rich, heady wine that is going to need a number of years to come into its own. Time in the glass releases gorgeous aromatics to play off a core of dark red purplish fruit, spice and licorice notes. There's tons of depth and character, but this is an uncharacteristically reticent 2017. Give this exotic beauty time. The aromatics alone are so inviting. 95 Pts Vinous
