The Ferlat 2020 is a red wine that embodies the essence of Cabernet Franc, an indigenous grape variety from the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. With an alcohol content of 13%, this wine presents itself as a work of oenological art, perfectly reflecting the unique terroir of this area known for its well-drained soils and temperate climate. With an intense ruby color, the Ferlat exudes elegance and structure from the first sip.
The tasting notes reveal a complex bouquet that combines fresh red fruits, such as cherries and currants, with delicate herbal and spicy nuances, hinting at black pepper and tobacco in the background. Its vibrant acidity and smooth tannins come together in sublime balance, making each sip a memorable tasting experience. The aromatic persistence is remarkable, with echoes of berries and a subtle hint of oak derived from aging in barriques.
Excellent with hearty dishes such as herb-seasoned beef roast or a leg of lamb, the Ferlat 2020 stands out as a perfect pairing for aged cheeses as well. Ideal to uncork on special occasions or for an intimate dinner, this wine invites you to discover its rich complexity sip after sip, transporting you straight to the historic vineyards of Friuli. A Cabernet Franc that not only delights the palate but also tells a story of passion and winemaking tradition.
