Cascina Carpini Description
Bruma d’Autunno comes from an ancient vineyard planted in 1926 that has been re-named after the winemaker's son Riccardo. The vines are almost 100 years old and they resemble humble old ladies, which magically become fair ladies during harvest, granting Barbera with unique character.
Bruma d’Autunno completely reverses the concept of time: with aging this wine gets fresher and more elegant, as if it would be a young fresh wine. It is a unique journey through the Barbera grape varietal, it is a reminiscence of a walk in the woods next to the vineyards, during autumn: the scent of the wet leaves on the ground, the bark, the moss, and the mushrooms, with the addition of red berries, a touch of smokiness, and light balsamic notes.
