The Cabernet is unmistakable on the nose – cassis and fresh mint, both ripe and herbaceous. The palate is rich and plushly cushioned, powerful blackberry and liquorice flavours providing an overlay to the structured tannins. The finish cuts through the sense of fruit sweetness, a briny-savoury precision reimposing itself.
"A strident yet elegant, full bodied wine for drinking now and for following over the next decade."
Italy’s Veneto wine region has played a pivotal part in Italy’s wine culture since Roman times, boosted by its strategic location close to Venice and the Adriatic. Today the Veneto is a thriving wine region, responsible for almost a sixth of Italy’s wine production and the source of Italy’s most successful contemporary wine ‘brand’ Pinot Grigio, a light-bodied dry white wine made from vineyards on the plains. Behind Venice, the Conegliano hills are home to Prosecco, the white grape and sparkling white wine style now taking the world by storm.
