mineral-driven cassis

Mild reduction knocks down the fruit but there is no such problem with the vibrant

Pressed in an old Vaslin press

Cascina Luisin, Barbaresco Rabaja other_regions_australia mineral-driven cassisThis red has a real sense of place, offering iron, eucalyptus and tobacco aromas and flavors that frame the cherry and strawberry fruit, while the firm structure is from both the bright acidity and dusty tannins. Ends with a long aftertaste of underbrush and sweet fruit. Best from 2015 through 2028. 400 cases made. BS
