2015 | Elvio Cogno | Barolo Cascina Nuova

This wine is bright garnet red in color with orange tints. Pleasing and immediate, it offers scents of flowers and light, delicate spices. The bouquet is agreeably rounded, with just the right balance between pleasantness and elegance. The aftertaste is very harmonious with a long, mineral, aromatic finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2015 Barolo Cascina Nuova is a dark and concentrated expression that offers succulence and richness with a full load of ripe summer plum and blackberry. There is softness here with black and purple fruit, natural rubber and savory spice. Pair this wine with a hearty beef en croute and roasted vegetables.

• James Suckling: Entrancingly deep, red and blue-rose aromas here with an ethereal, dried-leaf and herb edge and pristine red cherries. The palate has very impressive, fine and tight tannins and a fresh, pure core of red-cherry and plum flavor. Impeccably focused finish. Try from 2023.

Producer Information

Azienda Agricola Elvio Cogno is an Italian wine producer, located just south of the Barolo comune in the Langhe area of Piedmont. Unsurprisingly, it is well-known for producing Barolo DOCG wine from the Nebbiolo grape variety. The range of Nebbiolo wines is completed by the Barbaresco Bordini and a Langhe Nebbiolo. Elvio Cogno also makes several other wines, including two Barbera d'Alba wines and a Dolcetto d'Alba. One of the most notable wines in the collection is the Barbera d'Alba Pre-Phollxera produced from one of the last vineyards of Langhe that is over 100 years old. The sandy-calcareous soils created an inhospitable environment and the vines were able to survive the phylloxera pandemic. The estate owns around 15 hectares (37 acres) of vineyards in Novello, including 11.5ha (28.4 acres) divided into multiple parcels within four different areas of the Ravera cru. These correspond to the four Barolo wines produced – the Riserva Vigna Elena, Ravera, Bricco Pernice and Cascina Nuova cuvées. Elvio Cogno was formed in 1990 when the Cogno family purchased the current winery and house. The family had been growing grapes and producing wine in La Morra for many generations. In 2012, the company won a UNESCO award for the restoration work of their farmhouse in the sympathetic installation of new facilities. Today, annual production totals around 7000 cases.
