Description
CABERNET FRANC
IGT MARCA TREVIGIANA
An Exploration of the Territory and Winery
In the heart of the Marca Trevigiana, the unmistakable Cabernet Franc presents itself as an authentic expression of the territory. Through the Podere dei Campi in Zenson di Piave, this wine reveals its unique history.The Art of Vinification and Ageing
Artisanal harvesting and detailed crush-destemming are the first steps in a careful process. Fermentation in temperature-controlled steel vessels in the presence of the skins is carried out by selected yeasts, resulting in a wine of remarkable complexity. Resting on its own yeasts and bottle aging complete the process, giving Cabernet Franc a balanced maturity.Exploring the Identity of Cabernet Franc
The lands of Piave offer Cabernet Franc the ideal terroir, due to the presence of sandy, medium-textured soils to clay. The deep ruby red color anticipates a unique herbaceous bouquet, with smoky and bell pepper traces, due to the high pyrazine content.
Aggressiveness and Refinement in Every Sip
Cabernet Franc is distinguished by a flavor profile that combines aggressiveness, aristocracy, fullness, acidity and rich tannins when young. While when aged, it loses not quite the youthful herbaceousness, evolving with age toward a generous elegance. Ideal with cold meats, roasts, poultry and game, the wine reveals its full potential at specific serving temperatures between 14-16° when young and between 16-18° when aged.
