Dipoli Iugum 2017
This vineyardis located on the slope of Magré one of the warmest vineyard areas of Alto Adige. The warm temperature and the soil structure with a high clay content determined the selection of Bordeaux varieties. My objective was to produce a great red wine which could be barrel aged and withstand long bottle ageing.

Colour

Intense and intense ruby red in the glass.

Bouquet

It opens to the nose giving olfactory scents of ripe forest fruits, which are enriched with spicy juniper hints and flavors of aromatic herbs.

Flavour

Warm the palate, energetic in the tannins, full bodied and intact on the fruit. Long persistence and pleasantly almond closing.

Pairing

Excellent with meat based dishes, it is perfect with roast pork with juniper berries.

Ageing Cabernet Sauvignon is aged for 12 months in new barriques. For Merlot second and third run barriques are used. 12 months after the harvest the wines are blended together. After 60 days ageing in stainless steel vats Iugum is bottled. It is then released after 24 months ageing in bottle, that is 4 years after the harvest.
