More information about Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon Toscano IGT - Carpineto

The Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon from Carpineto comes into the glass with an intense, dense ruby red color and delicate garnet reflections. The nose of this single-varietal Tuscan Cabernet impresses with opulent nuances of blackcurrants, complemented by crème de cassis, ripe blackcurrants and other berries. Spicy notes of vanilla, licorice and a little clove as well as balsamic nuances complete the bouquet of the Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon.

On the palate, the Carpineto Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon starts off extraordinarily powerful, dense and yet very fresh and vital. In addition to the fresh fruit acidity, the imposing but very polished tannins are particularly striking, forming a soft, velvety black and red background against which the aromas of the Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon Toscana IGT stand out like shining diamonds.

Vinification of the Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon from Carpineto

The grapes are pressed and fermented separately by parcel. After fermenting for around 2 weeks, the wine rests and undergoes malolactic fermentation. In spring, the Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon is then transferred to barriques, where it matures for approx. 1 year. This is followed by at least 8 months of bottle ageing before the Farnito is released for sale.

Food pairing for the Farnito Cabernet Sauvignon

This top red wine from Tuscany is best enjoyed with fillet of beef with braised eggplant, lamb chops with potato and celery mash and wild mushrooms or simply on its own or with a fine dark chocolate.
