It is located on a steep slope that arises from Bosco della Fava and descends swiftly towards the border with Monforte d’Alba. The greatest emotion is the one you feel when reaching the top of the vineyard: a five-meter tall dune of pure Arenarie di Diano stands out there, as the witness of the unique soil composition of Coste di Rose. These sands provide Barolo DOCG Coste di Rose with its distinctive character: tones of cherry and rose petals, mint and sweet spices, a silky tannin and a juicy sip.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe 2022 Coste di Rose opens with evolving aromas of red cherry and amarena, cranberry, strawberry and plum, supported by violet and other delicate floral notes. Beneath, nuances of sweet spices, dark chocolate, nutmeg and clove form a rich core, lifted by hints of white pepper, fresh mint and a touch of orange zest. On the palate, the wine is fresh, long and elegant.  A fine, signature granular grip greets the front of the mouth, while juicy dark and \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ered fruit unfolds with quiet intensity. Subtle floral and citrus accents are carried by \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003elively acidity, giving this wine an ethereal poise. The finish is mineral-driver, with \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003elingering notes of red fruit and crushed limestone. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCritics thoughts -  \u003c\/strong\u003eFloral, as is typical of this estate, with crunchy red fruit and rose petals. The palate is mediumbodied, with a blanket of delicate, tender fruit defined by chalky, precise yet silky tannins.  Drinkable now with proper aeration, but will improve with some bottle age.  \u003cstrong\u003e96 points James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA youthful bright ruby hue, the 2022 Barolo Coste di Rose is fresh and minty with aromas of ripe raspberries and pressed roses.
