Cabernet

Cabernet is among South Tyrol’s true aristocratic varietal wines and has been cultivated here for over a century. Full dark ruby in colour with a concentrated aroma of blackcurrant and blackberry, rich on the palate with assertive, supple tannins, long with fresh fruit on the finish. Cellaring potential 2-4 years.

An excellent partner for grilled or roast beef, dishes based on venison and lamb, as well as for mature cheeses. Serve cool, 18 °C.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon from selected sites, approx. 5,500 guyot-trained vines per ha.

Warm west to southwest facing sites in the Girlan-Eppan area and Bolzano, at altitudes of 270-410 metres a.s.l.; morainal and alluvial soils of eroded porphyry.
