facing the Latour vineyard

Lares Babel Coferment Blend is made from Pinot Noir

cherries and very light pepper notes develop

its dense purple hue is followed by an incredible bouquet of pure crème de cassis

This comes very close to realizing my dream of gruner veltliner

Michele Chiarlo Asili, Barbaresco DOCG, Italy 2022 Craggy Range facing the Latour vineyardAn evolved and complex wine with a lot of fresh leather and blood oranges, dried flowers and earthy tones. Firm on the palate, this has medium body and slightly dusty tannins balanced by fruit concentration and juicy acidity in the finish. Drinkable now but best from 2026. James Suckling
