Tenuta Regaleali Cabernet Sauvignon Vigna San Francesco 2017

Sicily, ItalyA typical nose of dried black currant, medicinal cherry, fig, dried herbs, and cedar, backed by sweet spices and vanillin from 100% new barriques from Allier and Tronçais. This offers a sweet attack, with a liqueur-like character to the fruit at this level of ripeness (15% abv), with a drying finish that's accentuated by the warming alcohol. The full-bodied style will appeal to those looking for hedonistic expressions of cabernet, with the savouriness that typifies Italy.Tasted: 01 September 2022Tasted by: Prices:
