Origin
Our Cabernet Riserva is grown on the deep sedimentary soils of Branzollo, Bolzano and Caldaro. The age of the vines and a strict limitation of the yield are our guarantee for high quality grapes. A high percentage of Cabernet Franc (25 %) gives the wine its unique character.
Vinification
After fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 30°C, the Cabernet matures in big wooden barrels for 15 months.
Description
The Cabernet has a deep garnet-red colour, an intense aroma of black currants with slight herbaceous notes; on the palate it is full bodied and prolonged with smooth tannins. The Cabernet can be paired with just about all intensely-flavoured dishes, grilled or roasted red meat, game and pungent cheese.
