Cabernet Sauvignon AltaVilla Della Corte, 2016 By Firriato
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Vineyard – Tenuta Borgo Guarini near Trapani Sicily
Aging Seven Months in Oak Barriques of French and American
The complexity of the different climatic conditions and the orographic variability of the soils of the Tenuta di Borgo Guarini, in western Sicily, contribute to creating that ideal and necessary habitat for the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon.
From the fusion of Sicilianity and French imprint, this wine with a remarkable absorbency is born. A pure Cabernet Sauvignon that attests to the surprising versatility of the French grape and, at the same time, the natural vocation of the Sicilian territory to quality viticulture. The grapes cultivated in Borgo Guarini perfectly enhance the synergy between the territory and the wine art that has always characterized Firriato's wines. In the Borgo Guarini Estate, in Sicily, the French variety has found a loving adopted land, which recalls the pedoclimatic characteristics of its homeland in a Mediterranean key.
