THE WINE
The Terrano from the Kante farm comes from 100% terrano grapes grown in the vineyards owned by the winery, located in the Trieste Karst at an altitude of approximately 250 meters above sea level. Here, the land is red and rich in limestone rock, which allows excellent drainage. Kante has been producing this wine for twenty-three years, and it is one of its flagships.
THE WINEMAKING
The harvest of the grapes is strictly manual, in boxes, and takes place only when the grapes have reached the desired level of ripeness. Once in the cellar, the grapes macerate on the skins for three weeks. The wine ages for at least thirty-six months in 25-hectoliter oak barrels. After blending and bottling, the wine rests in the cellar for a few more months before being released onto the market.
THE TASTING
Intense and brilliant purple-red, the aroma is elegant, with pleasant notes of berries and plums that alternate with hints of chocolate and spicy hints of black pepper. Harmonious and very fresh on the palate, this Terrano fully represents the territories of origin. Long and persistent.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Excellent with red meats and mature cheeses. Try with a good plate of mixed cold cuts.
