Information about the wine

Winery	Antica Fattoria Sorbaiano.
Growing region	Montescudaio, Tuscany.
Vintage	2019
Typology	IGT
Grape variety	100% Cabernet Franc.
Maturation	The wine's production follows a precisely coordinated process that ensures the elegance and quality of the final product. First, the grapes are carefully destemmed and pressed. Then, alcoholic fermentation begins in modern stainless steel tanks under strict temperature control to preserve the aromatic purity and freshness. This phase of fermentation and maceration lasts about 15 days. After the initial alcoholic fermentation, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, also in stainless steel tanks. This process softens the acidity of the wine, giving it a more harmonious, softer texture. For refinement, the wine is then aged for approximately 12 to 15 months in three carefully selected French barriques. The wooden barrels help to give the wine additional complexity and structure while integrating subtle aromas of vanilla and spices. After this barrel aging, however, the wine is not yet finished. It rests for another 12 months in the bottle to develop its aromas and round out its structure. This entire aging process guarantees that the wine offers a balanced, mature character that offers enjoyment at the highest level.
Color	Deep dark red color.
Scent	The aroma of this Cabernet Franc is a fascinating interplay of different scents that seduces the senses. Upon first encounter, intense notes of red and dark fruits awaken the attention. Here, juicy aromas of black currants, ripe cherries, and dark blackberries present themselves, immediately reminiscent of the lush abundance of summer. These fruity components are masterfully accompanied by delicate, floral nuances that give the wine a subtle, elegant lightness. It is as if a touch of violets and rose petals is in the air, adding a playful freshness and floral depth to the bouquet. Crowning it all is a refined note of cedarwood, which gives the fragrance a warm, woody spice and structure. These woody hints add an additional dimension and give the wine a certain maturity and seriousness without being dominant. The overall impression is one of rich complexity and harmony, inviting you to lift it to your nose again and again to discover the diverse layers and nuances of this wonderfully balanced Cabernet Franc. This scent profile makes the tasting a particularly sensual and unforgettable experience.
Taste	The taste of this Cabernet Franc is as impressive and multi-layered as its aroma. With the first sip, an amazing fruitiness fills the palate: ripe black currants and juicy cherries unfold with a natural sweetness that makes the wine velvety and inviting. This fruit-emphasized beginning is complemented by fine notes of raspberries and blackberries, which provide a multifaceted taste profile. In the middle palate, the wine develops a delicate spice. Fine hints of black pepper and cedarwood contribute a subtle tartness that elegantly balances the fruity foundation. This complexity is further emphasized by a light herbal note reminiscent of fresh mint or dried thyme. It brings a fine freshness and a certain element of surprise into play. The tannins of this Cabernet Franc are remarkably fine and smooth. They give the wine structure without dominating the taste or weighing down the mouthfeel. Rather, they have a supportive effect and allow the wine to finish velvety soft. The aftertaste is long-lasting and delicate – here, gentle wood notes and the deep fruitiness return in perfect harmony, lingering and pampering the palate. The harmonious balance between fruitiness, spice, and structure makes this wine an exceptional taste experience that leaves a lasting impression on the senses.
Serving suggestion	The Velathri Cabernet Franc is a versatile, characterful wine that is an excellent accompaniment to a variety of dishes. It pairs particularly well with hearty dishes such as lamb or beef roasts, where its complex structure and pronounced aromas come into their own. Game dishes such as venison, deer, or wild boar benefit especially from the harmonious acidity of the wine, which ideally complements the strong meat. Rich poultry dishes, such as duck à l’orange or crispy roasted goose, are enhanced many times over by the fruity nuances and spicy finish of the wine. Velathri Cabernet Franc also unfolds its complexity with mature cheese, balancing the intense taste of the cheese aromas. Serve this wine at a temperature of 16-18°C to enjoy the full taste profile. In this way, your culinary experience will certainly be enriched by the use of this exquisite wine.
