Cabernet sauvignon Vigna San Francesco 2019, Tasca d'Almerita - Tenuta Regaleali
A monumental thousandth that defines the perfection of the grape variety in the Regaleali terroir. The olfactory profile is an interplay of fleshy black fruits, mineral notes, and hints of balsamic. On the palate, it is powerful, vibrant, and has a moving saline persistence, supported by a noble tannic structure that promises a legendary evolution.
Cabernet sauvignon Vigna San Francesco 2019, Tasca d'Almerita - Tenuta Regaleali
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Vigna San Francesco by Tasca d'Almerita is a wine that celebrates 40 years since the first harvest of this iconic vineyard. The 2019 vintage in the Tenuta Regaleali estate was marked by a mild summer and generous spring rains, conditions that gave the Cabernet impressive aromatic freshness and technical precision. On the nose, it is a triumph of small black fruits, mulberry, and morello cherry, enriched by notes of Mediterranean scrub, wild mint, and the characteristic touch of graphite and black pepper. Aging in French oak barriques (70% new) brings elegant hints of vanilla, cocoa powder, and blond tobacco. On the palate, it is sumptuous, with an aristocratic progression: the entry is soft but immediately supported by significant acidity and a dense, noble, and already incredibly smooth tannic structure. The finish is a savory and balsamic crescendo of rare persistence.
