About this wine
Crafted from organically cultivated vines at the historic Vignamaggio estate in Greve in Chianti, this single-varietal Cabernet Franc is a vivid and characterful expression of Tuscany's IGT category. Deep purple-violet in colour, it opens with a rich aromatic profile of blueberries, ripe redcurrants and raspberries, lifted by fragrant herbs and a subtle hint of sweet pepper.
On the palate, it is elegant and structured, with smooth tannins providing excellent framework and a lasting, spiced finish. Vignamaggio's organic farming practices, on the estate since 1404, give this wine genuine terroir definition, an excellent match with grilled meats, herbed lamb or mature Italian cheeses.
