Isole e Olena Collezione Privata Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Tuscany, ItalyFrom the crumby galestro soils of Isole e Olena estate's 49 hectares of vineyard that face southwest. They are situated on the Western border of the Chianti Classico zone, approximately 350-400 meters above sea level. This spent 24 months in 80/20 French / American oak (40% new) oak and another 2 years on the bottle before release. Ripe, polished black cherry, herbal black raspberry fills the fuller, dusty frame, striated by grippy/gritty tannins and seasoned with baking spices and some older toasted wood. The finish is somewhat drying at this point and best taken with roast pork. Sample tasted at Global Comparative Tasting: Cabernet Sauvignon.Tasted: 12 May 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
