Taste Profile
Tasting Note
From a classic vintage and a long growing season, this Cabernet Franc is slow to open and reveals a long range of aromas to coincide with various intervals one hour after the bottle is open, six hours later and even two days later. Give it time. Didacus reveals textbook varietal purity with dark fruit, bramble, white pepper, crushed stone and rosemary essence. There is little sweetness to the fruit, and the wine's personality embraces a more tonic or focused style with inner tension and verve. It focuses on length, not textural width. Compared to the Chardonnay, which is full-on Mediterranean with a kaleidoscope of bold fruit intensity, this wine is more reserved and timid. It adopts the silent, noble and insular side of the Sicilian persona and is a wine that succinctly relays its intention and uses few words to do so
Product Notes
Planeta Didacus Cabernet Franc is a well-balanced and full-bodied red wine from Italy. It showcases a deep ruby hue and a complex aroma that is both spicy and fruity. On the palate, it reveals flavors of black cherries, blackcurrants, and earthy notes of tobacco and leather. The wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, contributing to its smooth and velvety tannins. This wine pairs nicely with hearty meat dishes, stews, and mature cheeses. It is a great addition to any wine collection and perfect for special occasions. Planeta Didacus Cabernet Franc is a true testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and quality of Italian wine-making.
