{"product_id":"cascina-luisin-barbaresco-paolin-2021","title":"Cascina Luisin, Barbaresco Paolin, 2021","description":"This is a traditionally made Barbaresco you don't have to lock away for a decade. Paolin's core comes from the Basarin cru in Neive, a south-facing site of calcareous marl with lots of sand, and that soil gives fragrant, elegant Nebbiolo that's approachable young. Paolin isn't a single-vineyard wine. Parcels from across the appellation go into it, and it's the gentlest, most fruit-forward of the estate's Barbarescos, which makes it the natural way into a house that otherwise rewards patience. None of the winemaking is rushed, though: about 40 days in cement tanks, then 18 months in big 30-hectolitre Slavonian oak casks from Stockinger and six more months in bottle. The name runs in the family. The estate is named for Luigi Minuto, who founded it in 1913 and was known as \"Luisin,\" or \"little Luigi,\" in Piedmontese. Paolin means \"little Paolo\" and honors Roberto Minuto's father, who was six years old when the family started releasing wine under its own label. The 2021 vintage helps too: a cool spring and a warm, steady summer meant slow, even ripening, and the result is elegant, vertical Nebbiolo with the tension to age.","brand":"T.
