The «international varieties» reached Albarola in the second half of the nineteenth century. This led the estate to a clonal selection of small vineyards of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the oldest of which are now sixty years old. Hence the decision to produce, only in the finest vintages, a wine from one or more of these plots: the 2016 vintage, for example, is pure Cabernet Franc.
Vinification involves a maceration of around fifteen days, followed by twenty-four months in small oak barrels. The further refinement in bottle, never shorter than a year, is essential.
The online shop is coming soon. In the meantime this wine can be purchased directly at the estate or ordered by phone or email: we will be glad to advise you.
