In Swurl's recent piece "One of Barolo’s Most Coveted Producers Expands Its U.S. Footprint" writer Jeffrey Porter celebrates the addition of Elio Sandri to the Rosenthal portfolio.
"For years, finding a bottle of Elio Sandri's Cascina Disa required either knowing the right person, making the pilgrimage to his Monforte d'Alba estate, or getting very lucky. Fortunately, that is about to change.
Rosenthal Wine Merchant, one of the most respected importers in the United States with nearly 50 years of history bringing artisan European wines to American tables, has officially signed Elio Sandri's Cascina Disa, adding another layer to their stellar estates of the Langhe.
For those already familiar with Cascina Disa or Elio Sandri, this is particularly exciting news. For those who may not be as familiar, you are in for a treat. These are the wines we all crave: pure, delicious, earnest, and intentional. Little is made, but it is worth the search and not just for the Barolo but from the entire range."
