James Suckling
Reviewed January 2024Extremely perfumed with strawberry and forest floor with some sandalwood, roses and candied watermelon. It’s medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins that are bold and solid. Very persistent finish. Chewy at the end. Classic Barolo character. Drink after 2029.

Wine Spectator
This is supple and complex, delivering cherry, strawberry, summer meadow, earth, leather and iron aromas and flavors. Firmly structured, this picks up a hint of licorice as it winds down on the lingering finish, with tannins that are solid yet civilized. Shows fine potential. Best from 2028 through 2046. (BS)

Wine Enthusiast
This wine offers a symphony of spiced, mixed fruits that play across the sensory spectrum, from the bright, high-toned notes to the deeper bass tones. Crushed flowers and savory herbs add subtle accents that keep you drawn to the glass. The palate's elegance is perceived immediately as fine tannins and vibrant acidity deftly move the red-hued fruits across the palate to join with the more savory and umami tinged notes of the finish.

Jeb Dunnuck
The medium red 2020 Barolo Cascina Nuova is spiced and fruity with notes of ripe grenadine, pink peppercorn, dried apricots, and polished leather. Open and approachable, it offers ripe, supple tannins, even acidity, and a clean finish with good length. It’s a very charming wine with a wide drinking window for enjoyment over the next 10 years.
