Cascina Luisin Barbaresco Rabaja 2017
Did you feel it? That electric surge of endorphins that wine lovers, sommeliers, and long-time Last Bottlers just experienced washing over every lobe in their brain? Cascina Luisin’s incomparable single vineyard Barbaresco is BACK! Arguably the greatest Barbaresco vineyard (and certainly the most expensive – a bottle of Giacosa Riserva from the same vineyard will set you back about $1000), and today, we are stunned, dumbfounded, and absolutely steamrolled to have a BRILLIANT bottle of this magical elixir at a salivary-gland-inducing price – OVER 54% OFF (and nowhere near 1k, either!).
ANY of you who bought some of the last few vintages of Cascina Luisin already know the magic we are talking about – that POWER, that heavenly aroma...in such a silky, weightless, finesse-filled frame…AHHH! OVER 54% OFF?! For single cru BARBARESCO like this?!!?
Seriously – if world-class Nebbiolo is your bag, hopefully, you have already locked some of this down. This PRICE. Dang!! Crazy! The cherries! Rose petals, hibiscus, and lavender! It just pulls you in…with this wistful bouquet of flowers and then things get SERIOUS! The strawberries! Then licorice nibs, orange pekoe tea, a whiff of vanilla-tinged oak, some fresh off-the-tree candy-striped figs, and perky, tangy red fruits...oh mama! Long and lingering, with intense, mouth-coating structure, and powerful yet silky tannins...GET. IT!
Luisin was founded in 1913 and owns small parcels of some truly top-notch vineyards, including Asili and Rabajà. Founded by Luigi Minuto (‘Luisin’ means ‘small Luigi’ in the local dialect), and it was a wonderful day when we discovered them and started bringing some into the USA. The wines are just scintillating year after year and we can’t say enough great things about them.
Barely enough to go around...while it lasts…!
