Cabernet grapes from a single plot on the slopes of Castel Pradaglia in Isera, on volcanic and sedimentary soils that lend structure and depth to the fruit. Hand-harvested and selected in the vineyard, then vinified in stainless steel with fermentation and maceration at controlled temperatures. A long ageing in French oak tonneaux follows, then a rest in steel and a gentle filtration before bottling.
Deep ruby red with violet highlights. Broad and enveloping: ripe fruit, blackberry, plum, black cherry, merging with sweet spices, hints of cocoa and notes of tobacco. Deep and velvety, with a well-crafted tannic texture and a fine balance between power and elegance. Its bold structure is balanced by lively freshness and a long, flavourful persistence.
Grilled or braised red meats, game, roast beef or lamb, aged hard cheeses. Excellent with hearty Trentino dishes: oven-roasted pork shank, venison stew, gnocchi with game ragù.
