A very funny nose - lamb with adjika. And a touch of whisky, bandages, mushrooms, mushroom instant noodles, onion. Probably older, judging by the sweet tannin and rounded body. Very strange wine. But interesting. Raisins. And so much onion. SO MUCH ONION. Like Cipollino the cartoon character. The strangest wine of the evening - and the intruder from Marche, as it turned out. Top wine of the winery. Strange stuff indeed.
About
I Sassi di San Giuseppe is a small estate in the Marche. Rosso Crudo is their top wine. The name "crudo" (raw) signals the philosophy: minimal intervention, no filtration, no fining.
