CABERNET FRANC 2021 Friuli Colli Orientali D.o.c. - La Roncaia

The Cabernet Franc grapes, carefully selected and hand-harvested at optimal ripeness, undergo pre-fermentation maceration for about 7 days. Fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The wine is aged in steel for at least 18 months, and after bottling, it is further refined in a horizontal position, enhancing its balance and complexity.
