Description
Still red wine from Friuli Grave DOC, 13.5% ABV, produced by San Simone. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. 0.75 L bottle, 2021 vintage. A Cabernet Sauvignon born from the passion of a family that has believed in the winemaking potential of Friuli for over a hundred years. Destemming followed by 15-20 days of fermentation on the skins in stainless steel fermenters at a controlled temperature (26-28°C). Aged in small oak barrels for approximately 16 months. Maturation continues for 6-12 months in steel tanks before bottling. Complex, intense, and captivating, with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, and raspberry, combined with delicate notes of vanilla and licorice and spicy hints of cinnamon and cloves. Intense ruby red color with purple reflections. Velvety and savoury, enveloping and warm, with round and harmonious tannins, it displays a freshness well blended with soft notes.

Later on handed over to our parents, Gino and Liviana convinced that to grow and improve we must always be open to change, which gave birth to a new production project: San Simone. An adventure that started from the historical Brisotto cellars, in Prata and later shifted to the new premises in Porcia, where the company accelerated its pace on the road to quality. This project aims to handle with care even a minimum detail, from the vineyard to the bottle.
