Winemaking and refining
The Cabernet Franc “ Amelia” grows in a small plot of land of less than 1 acre in Fauglia, in the heart of the sweet Pisan hills. It is harvested exclusively by hand and then put in small stainless steel tuns. After the alcoholic fermentation is completed the wine is moved in 225 litres French barriques for refining. Organic principles and careful selection of grapes together with the small quantities of grapes produced create a very interesting wine, rich in perfumes, smoothness and persistance. 2017 Amelia is best served between 18-20 C°. No oenological practice is applied and it is not filtered nor clarified.
Wine description
Amelia shows an intense ruby-red color. Good expression and aromatic complexion: with notes of plums and blackberry, blueberry and blackcurrant. Well integrated notes of chocolate and licorice. Ample and balanced on the palate, the wine shows silky tannins along with a sweet and spicy finish and aftertaste.
