Cabernet Franc '20Ventuno22' Eugenio Rosi
The Cabernet Franc "20Ventuno22" by Eugenio Rosi is an intense and elegant Trentino red wine which is made up of the union of a three-year solera, aged for 24 months in oak barrels. It presents itself with a dark and deep robe, with ruby tones, and expresses notes full of blackberries, blueberries, currants and herbaceous notes, cocoa and spiciness, releasing a silky and enveloping mouthfeel with excellent freshness
Eugenio Rosi's Cabernet Franc '20Ventuno22' is a persuasive, ripe red with an overflowing personality, a blend of a solera from three different vintages. Eugenio never ceases to thrill us with this red that would make far more prestigious labels capitulate when tasted blind, as it is capable of combining a richness of substance with a spontaneous and flowing flavour dynamic. Here in Vallagarina, just south of Trento, Eugenio cultivates without any sophistication a mix of historical local varieties, such as Marzemino and Nosiola, and international varieties splendidly adapted to the territory, such as Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco. No secrets, just a deep passion and knowledge of the land, also passed on to Eugenio by his father during countless outings in the countryside. Eugenio's liquids are amazing and, like all great wines, are able to unite different types of enthusiasts. Indisputable.
The Cabernet Franc wine '20Ventuno22' is a blend of three different vintages of the famous grape variety, refined using the solera method. In the vineyard, no chemical or synthetic substances are used, but only a little copper and sulphur. In the cellar, spontaneous alcoholic fermentations and long maceration on the skins are carried out consistently. The liquid matures in wooden barrels and cement vats before being bottled.
The "20Ventuno22" Cabernet Franc reveals itself in the glass with an impenetrable and compact ruby red colour. A nose of unimaginable depth and richness, reminiscent of cocoa, ripe plum, graphite and dark spices. Undoubtedly filling and voluminous liquid, it takes possession of the palate by virtue of an important but always perfectly balanced structure between velvety tannin and spraying acidity, enticing one to take another sip. Fascinating.
