BERGAMASCA CABERNET FRANC IGP - BIO - LOMBARDIA
Valcalepio area, with its rolling hills stretching between Lake Iseo and Lake Como, is an ancient land where viticulture dates back to Roman times. Here, fertile soils and a mild climate nurture a pure expression of Cabernet Franc with no added sulfite. This wine, both intense and generous, reflects the strength and resilience of the Bergamasque people, capturing the essence of a land that has always embraced both tradition and innovation
Grape variety
100% Cabernet Franc.
Vineyards of origin
The ideal grapes for this wine are carefully selected from all the company’s vineyards at the Le Corne estate, located in the municipality of Grumello del Monte. These vineyards, perched on the hills above Grumello, benefit from excellent and constant ventilation, allowing for the perfect ripening of the bunches.
Soil: Of calcareous-clay nature, with fluvio-glacial sediments, this soil is ideal for viticulture. It ensures wines that are structured, fresh, and marked by a distinct minerality. The sun exposure on the hillsides promotes full ripening of the grapes.
Training system: Guyot
Season in the field: Meticulous vineyard selection is followed by pre-destemming sorting and manual selection on the sorting table.
Average yield: 45 q/ha.
Vinification
The grapes are meticulously selected, cooled, and fermented as whole berries under controlled temperature conditions. Matured in stainless steel tanks for 6-8 months, during which malolactic fermentation occurs.
Tasting notes
Ruby red with violet reflections. The nose is rich, offering aromas of fresh fruit, including cherry and plum, accompanied by a pronounced spiciness typical of the variety. On the palate, it is fresh and harmonious, with a long finish that mirrors the aromatic sensations experienced on the nose.
Pairings
Pairs well with fresh cheeses, lightly spiced cured meats, and roasted meats; also excellent as an aperitif.
Alcohol content and serving temperature
Alcohol content: 13 % Vol.
Serving Temperature: 16 - 18°C.
Notes: no sulphites added
