"The 2015 Barbaresco Rio Sordo is creamy and expansive, not to mention quite expressive. Attractive spiced and balsamic notes wrap around a core of dark stone fruit. Pliant, silky and beautifully resonant, with compelling balance and tons of allure, the Rio Sordo is another gorgeous wine in this range from Ca' Rome'."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
Produces Nebbiolo of slightly more elegance and approachability than neighboring Barolo, offering perfume, finesse and firm structure.
