Product Description
Details
Originating from a single vineyard of Cabernet Sauvignon nestled in the Colli Berici, the original home of Cabernet in Italy.
Enology
Fermentation and maceration for 14 days in vertical steel tanks. The wine is pressed and the free run juice, after malolactic fermentation is transferred to new French oak. The wine stays in barrel for approximately 18 months with no racking. It is aged for a further 12 months in bottle before release.
Impressions
The colour is almost opaque and the nose explodes from the glass, still young, it already shows black fruit, Griotte cherry, and touches of exotic spice leaver and vanilla. In the mouth the enormous power is framed by fine tannins and focused acidity. The finish is remarkable and suggests cellaring potential of at least a decade.
