THE WINE

TheCabernet Franc from the Le Due Torri winery is a red wine from pure Cabernet Franc grapes grown in the vineyards owned by the winery. This wine is one of the flagships of the winery, which perfectly expresses all the best characteristics of this grape variety.

We are in Corno di Rosazzo, an area of Friuli in the heart of the DOC Friuli, particularly suited to cultivating vines. Here, the winemakers are of few words but very attached to their land and traditions.

Another watchword of the Le Due Torri winery is biodiversity; four hectares of natural forest embrace the vineyards, creating a unique microclimate.

THE WINEMAKING

The harvest at Le Due Torri is always and only manual. In this case, it takes place in the last ten days of September, and once selected, the best grapes are taken to the cellar for winemaking. The grapes are then macerated for 20 days with daily manual pressing. Fermentation takes place in steel with the addition of selected yeasts. The refinement also takes place in steel, and after assembly and bottling, the wine rests for a few more months in the cellar before being placed on the market.

THE TASTING

Ruby red; the aroma is fresh with pleasant floral scents that intertwine with herbaceous notes to close with the vegetal sensations of pepper and hints of rhubarb. Very fresh on the palate with a well-balanced acidity. The tannins are present but smooth. This Cabernet Franc from the Le Due Torri winery is harmonious with good persistence.

FOOD PAIRINGS

Excellent with grilled meat and medium hard cheeses. Try it with mushroom dishes.
