Lanfora
Cabernet Sauvignon IGT Toscana
The cabernet sauvignon grapes are harvested by hand at the best moment for them, fermented as a single grape variety and aged in small terracotta amphorae for about six months.
The result is an intensely ruby red wine with garnet reflexes , and a young, fragrant perfume , with the scents of small red fruit and spices.
It is full and balanced to the palate, developing in a very pleasing way, with soft , harmonious tannins and a good aromatic profile. The end is balmy and firm with notes of red fruit.
