CHARACTERISTICS
Villa di Montruglio Cabernet is a wine that improves as the maturation process continues. It presents an impenetrable and intense ruby red colour. The clean aroma is very pleasant and presents a hint of small wild berries (strawberry, raspberry, currants).
VINIFICATION PROCESS
The winemaking process adopted for the Villa di Montruglio Cabernet follows the classical vinification stages for high-quality wines. The grapes (50% Cabernet Franc, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon) are harvested by hand when fully ripe, and then destalked, enzyme-treated and left to macerate for 10 days on average at a temperature of 25-30°C.
GUSTATORY EVALUATION
The wine presents a rich colour and its creamy viscosity is particularly evident to the palate. The superb balance of flavour is worthy of note. It may be chosen to accompany several dishes, and especially steamed meats (for example, rabbit and poultry). Serve at 18-20°C.
