Araucano Gran Araucano Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (750ml) Montefalco Sagrantino

Araucano Gran Araucano Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (750ml) Montefalco SagrantinoBeautiful, very deep red robe with cherry glints. Very aromatic nose, characterized by intense fruit, with fresh blackcurrants and complex notes of thyme and garrigue. Powerful on the palate, coated with concentrated tannins, that nevertheless show great finesse. The finish is very long, full flavored and complex.

The different parcels of Sauvignon Blanc have been combined to make a wine that is brimming with pure fruit flavours

then most of the lots were cold soaked to build richness and flavor before undergoing whole-berry fermentation in 55L upright French wood tanks

slowing growth and delaying flowering to early June

This wine purposely avoids being rated by any of the major publications

Rain showers in July and August and cool nights during the growing season helped limit the effects of drought and high temperatures

a stone’s throw from the Russian River

Warm earth tones reverberate through the lengthy finish

Aroma: red fruit and citrus notes with a gentle aromas of ageing

Sweet berry

A firm grip of tannins lines the finish

along with hints of baking spice and savory herbs

Quite long aftertaste for a young wine
