TENUTA FERNANDA CAPPELLO

Our Cabernet Franc presents itself as “typically Friulian,” with a ruby red color and intense violet reflections, flowing smoothly in the glass. On the nose, it offers sensations ranging from red fruits such as cherry, raspberry, blackberry, and blueberry, to spices like marjoram, rhubarb, gentian root, and white pepper, with enveloping, fresh, and decisive notes. On the palate, it is pleasantly fresh and not heavy, with aromas that carry through to the taste, enhanced by a soft sensation given by its sweet tannins and fresh herbaceous notes—hallmarks of Cabernet Franc from our region.

In Friuli, Cabernet Franc is the red wine traditionally enjoyed during various moments of conviviality: from casual conversations among friends to a simple snack with cured meats. This is precisely where the wine shines, thanks to its ease of expression and its remarkable ability to pair perfectly with cured meats and cheeses, both fresh and semi-aged, from cow’s and goat’s milk.
