Folonari B.S.T. Cabernet Sauvignon e Merlot 2017

These wines are called Baby Supertuscan because, unlike their “Senior” SuperTuscan cousins, their ageing takes place only in stainless steel. This technique makes them pleasant, fresh and easy to drink, it gives them softness on the palate and fruity notes as well.

Colour

Purple red of good-intensity, bright youth reflections.

Bouquet

Red fruits, blackberries, blackcurrant, plums and light notes of tobacco spicing.

Flavour

Pleasantly smooth with fragrant body and structure, light tannins with a good mouthfeel highlighting its pleasant youth.

Pairing

Everything that is red. Perfect for happy hours, original and surprising with Pizza Napoletana with Mediterranean dressings, charcuterie, finger food and street food.
