CABERNET FRANC
Cabernet Franc,
The land doesn’t reveal itself quickly.
It requires patience, dedication, and constant attention. The land tells its stories through every detail: from the plants bending in the wind, to the roots blending with the soil. At Ampeleia, in the hills of Roccatederighi, Cabernet Franc has found its home: a variety that takes time to show its true character, one that asks to be observed and understood with curiosity and patience. Because here, in the hills of Roccatederighi, every vineyard is unique.
So we walked among the vines, observed the land, and felt the air mixing with the forest’s breath. Every step, every look, every breath contributed to creating this monovarietal, 100% Cabernet Franc: the result of careful work, and years of experience.
We reserved just a few plots for it in our Vigna dell’Asino: the one with younger plants and richer clay soil, marked by the typical galestro limestone rocks.
make our Cabernet Franc a true expression of the fruit.
