100% Cabernet Franc. Deep ruby color and a complex, inviting bouquet. Aromas of raspberry, strawberry, red currant, and subtle red flowers mingle with soft, integrated herbaceous hints and a touch of toast. On the palate, flavors of black cherry, red berries, mild oak, and gently nutty notes, suggestive of almond, roll across a medium-bodied frame with medium- plus acidity and soft, velvety tannins. The fruit intensity is balanced by elegant structure, and the wine finishes thoughtfully, with lingering red fruit and delicate herbal undertones, reflecting the finesse and ageability typical of Collio Cabernet Franc.

Food Pairing: Roasted lamb, grilled duck, mushroom risotto, aged cheeses, herbed pork tenderloin, ratatouille, tomato-based pasta dishes, grilled vegetables
