Cabernet Sauvignon 100%
196 is simply the house number of the farm on via Bolgherese. We are in one of the most beautiful areas of Italy, a destination for millions of tourists from all over the world every year.
Via Bolgherese is only a few kilometers from the sea and is the one overlooked by many of the most famous companies in Italy. 196, in this case, is an IGT Costa Toscana, obtained from a pure processing of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. As usual for the company, the grapes are harvested by hand, selecting only the best bunches already in the field. Once in the cellar, it is immediately destemmed, pressed and fermented in particular tulip-shaped concrete tanks called (precisely) Tulipe.
Maceration lasts approximately 7-10 days. At the end of this process, the wine rests in concrete tanks for 8 months, followed by a further 2 months of maturation in the bottle.
In the glass you thus discover a wine characterized by a beautiful, intense and lively red colour.
The nose is decisive and exuberant, with fruity and vegetal notes that harmonize in a pleasant bouquet.
In the mouth, however, the beautiful fruity note is pleasant, accompanied in this case by a fresh natural acidity. It is the ideal red to accompany meat dishes, even spicy ones, or vegetables and cheeses of different ages.
