This never fails to meet the mark. My only complaint is self directed. It was consumed too quickly and only just started to emerge fully in the final glassful. Packed with rolling intensity this is dense and flavorful.

Opened nicely but still a bit tight. I’m going to avoid opening my remaining bottles a bit. I always enjoy this smooth delicious wine though...

A richer and more open style Cascina that was made with the Monfortino fruit as they did not produce a Monfortino that year.
