Description
The typical characters of Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc - when soil, climate and technology strongly contribute to their exaltation - are highly and clearly expressed. Deep in colour, it has a complex, warm bouquet with impressions of ripe blackberries followed by an enveloping, spicy taste with firm but graceful tannins.
