KIN 2017 Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG

Vivino Rating: 4.1 /5

Grape: Erbaluce di Caluso 100%

Harvesting: Hand picked and selected in end of September

Maturation:

The first fermentation is started in the steel on indigenous yeasts at controlled temperature and ends in 20 hl oak barrels where KIN ages for 18 months. Refinement takes place on the lees with weekly battonage. It then stays in a concrete tank for a few months to help its decantation. Clarification and filtration with the utmost respect for the intergrity of the wine.Then the wine "sleep" in the bottle for another 2 years.

Tasting:

The color is an intense straw yellow, with great liveliness and consistency. On the nose you will find an enveloping and elegant note of sage that blends with intrigung balsamic and spicy hints that make the olfactory profile even more compex with a clear mineral origin, alternating citrus, floral and wild herbs. In the mouth freshness and sapidity alternate harmoniously until melting into a soft and warm finish with citrus references. Long persistence and great balance for a wine of great longevity that will still be able to evolve, making it alpine soul emerge more and more with a clear mineral imprint if you have the patience to let it rest in a cool cellar.

Suggested Food Pairing:

KIN pairs well with rich appetizers in particular with elaborate first courses like risotto and pasta with fish and seafood, crepes and agnolotti. An unusual and excellent pairing is with steak. Kin is also ideal with fried fish and seafood. Other suggested pairing are second courses like stewed or baked fish, KIN excels in the pairing with Chicken, turkey, duck etc. At 18/20o this wine combines well with dry pastries and light desserts too.
