Wine Advocate
This wine sources its fruit from across three hectares on clay limestone soils. The Elvio Cogno 2021 Barolo Cascina Nuova is the most accessible wine in the family's portfolio and indeed the intensity threshold is a little lower in this case (especially compared to the Ravera) although you do get plenty of delicate Nebbiolo nuances. The bouquet offers dark fruit blue flower and spice. This wine ages in large Slavonian oak casks for 24 months so the primary fruit remains front and center. I suggest another year of bottle age to give the wine time to find better focus. Production is 21000 bottles. Published: Jan 30 2025

Supple and detailed featuring aromas and flavors of cherry strawberry plum eucalyptus iron and tobacco. This is all about finesse and balance with a gentle line of malleable tannins on the lingering aftertaste. Best from 2028 through 2046.—B.S.

This Barolo shows lavender dried cranberries licorice and a touch of tile on the nose. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and balanced with lovely succulent fruit complemented by incisive acidity. The tannins are fine grained yet chewy but they gradually resolve toward the bright finish. Better from 2026.

The 2021 Barolo Cascina Nuova is highly aromatic and expressive of anise incense blood orange and cranberry. The palate is medium-bodied but with a well-defined even feel as well as ripe tannins and ripe acidity. It offers exceptional aromatics and structure that are emblematic of the vintage and it should only improve over the next two decades if stored in cool cellars. A mix of the two Nebbiolo clones (60% Lampia and 40% Michet) this was vinified with a long maceration and submerged cap for 40 days followed by two years in barrels. Drink 2026-2046. Each of the Elvio Cogno wines for this report were tasted at the estate above the vines of Ravera in Novello. Sadly one of my favorite wines in the range will be no more after this year as the pre-phylloxera Barbera vines are no longer able to produce enough and they will be replanting the vineyard.

Showing impressive depth for what is the estate's entry level Barolo the 2021 Cascina Nuova is a fantastic wine. It opens with alluring aromas of wild rose forest berry sun-warmed hay and dark spice that on the full-bodied enveloping palate transform into succulent Marasca cherry raspberry and star anise. Taut refined tannins and fresh acidity provide balance. Drink 2028–2036. Abv: 14.5% Kerin O'Keefe December 2024 ©kerinokeefe.com
