La Calle Merlot Fasoli Gino / Organic Red Wines

Fasoli Gino - 2006/2007

Oozes class; every mouthful offers something new. Magnificent

Those of you who have had the good fortune to try Fasoli's Orgno will be delighted to hear about this vinous sibling!

To suggest that La Calle is in some way a second wine to the Orgno would be ridiculous. It commands the drinkers respect with its own unique flavours; prune, chocolate, spice, raisin... It's all in there, waiting to be discovered. As will all the Fasoli wines it manages to deliver power with elegance.
