Wine Maker's Note

Cabernet Franc is a business card to the terroir of Arba Wine. 2015 was a hot year contributing to high ripeness of the grapes. The wine was placed in oak barrels for aging up to 24 months, to soften it and make it more rounded and elegant. Despite the high number of tannins, the colour is quite soft and ruby.

Here we may feel subtle spices, red berries, tobacco, and stone fruits. The flavour of Cabernet Franc Reserve 2015 is fabulously balanced and full-bodied. Many experts think that this is one of the best Cabernet Francs from Arba Wine, rewarding it with 93 points. With an even longer aging in bottle during the coming years, this wine will become even more rich and elegant.
