Fratta 2017

A blend with 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 32% Merlot the grapes of which were partially dried. Matured in barriques, 80% new wood, for 12 months. An intense ruby color with magenta reflections. The aroma has citrusy notes followed by those of ripe raspberry and blackberry along with toasted and powdery sensations from the use of wood. The mouthfeel is compact with taut licorice sensations and a nice balance between the acidity and balsamic element.
