Casa di Terra Bolgheri Superiore 2013
Casa di Terra Bolgheri Superiore represents the compnay's philosophy based on daily work, passion, and attachment to the history of Bolgheri and its terroir, which is able to give birth to wines with intense character, strong but with the elegance and balance that only a great terroir can express. Casa di Terra originates from a pure Cabernet Franc, a grape variety typical of this corner of Tuscany conveying unique organoleptic emotions.

Bouquet

Ample with rich notes of spices and leather, followed by black fruit notes and hints of smoke and graphite.

Flavour

Warm and enveloping in the opening. The velvety, sweet, soft tannins blend with juiciness on the palate. The extremely persistent and long finish leaves a sensation of freshness in the mouth.

Pairing

It pairs well with truffles and slow-cooked meat dishes.
