Veneto, Italy / The Rosso dell’Abazia is the first wine made by Francesco and Antonello. It is their most prized wine: it’s been awarded the “Gambero Rosso Tre Bicchieri” for the 21st time. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot are then aged in barrel for 18-24 months.
The first impression in the nose is captivating and shows a complex fruitiness including a hint of dried red plums, sour cherries and candied citrus fruits follow by a hint hay, aromatic herbs, myrtle berries and bay as well as impressions of bloomed violets and eucalyptus. In the mouth the perception is fresh and at the same time warm, comfortable and pleasant. The wine opens to its “young” but soft and harmoniously integrated tannins; the finish is long, fruity and spicy with a harmonic and persistent body.
