Mezzacorona Castel Firmian Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
Intense, complex flavour with spicy notes, hints of eucalyptus and sweet fruit, and a fragrant scent of oak. Well balanced and full bodied.
Cabernet Sauvignon was introduced to Trentino at the end of the last century and has demonstrated a particular affinity to the region. The fruit for this wine comes exclusively from Mezzacorona's vineyards in the Arco area north of Lake Garda, an area especially well suited to cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon.
The wine underwent traditional red vinification with maceration on the skins for a period of eight to ten days, followed by temperature controlled fermentation. The wine was aged in French oak barriques for six to eight months.
Gruppo Mezzacorona was founded in 1904 as a wine growers association in Trentino-Alto Adige.
