Riserva Della Cascina

Cascina Chicco

Riserva Ginestra Barolo Nebbiolo 2008

Gorgeous garnet exhibiting classic orange notes and the tiniest tinges of age, but the aromas of cut cherry and citrus jump from the glass! Blood orange thyme and watermelon on a grill with red currant and just a touch of cranberry and holly to keep it festive. The tar is a hovering ethereal addition that would be a side note, but it hovers like a smoky cloud that adds a dark spirit to the whole, though it feels bright and fresh. A dichotomy, but one that seems an integral part of the whole. Every sip sends your tastebuds racing in a wash of intense red raspberry, plum, violet, thyme, racy citrus and grainy cedar, silky tannin, an unobtrusive touch of vanilla and sweet tobacco! Finesse and sophistication from entry to satisfying finish. An amazing wine with endless subtleties, physically pulling you in with its seductive structure. #cascinachicco #singlevineyard #barolo #ginestra #ethereal #nebbiololife #nebbiololover #nebbioli #nebbiyolo #piedmont #piedmontwines #piemonte — 8 years ago

Yeah - the whole Grinder/Lea Group seems to be private import only (better markup potential??) 🍷💸💳

Riserva Cave di Prun Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend 2004

Perfumed nose: dried flowers, chalk, plums, and milk chocolate shavings. Fruit is still bright on the nose and continues on the palate, primarily cherry notes. Hints of dried tobacco are there too. Medium weight. Slight heat on a lingering finish. Drink now, but can be held a couple more years. Paired well with grass fed ribeye, better with food. — 8 years ago
