Sant'Antimo DOC Cabernet Olmaia 2016 Col d'Orcia

The Sant'Antimo Cabernet Olmaia di Col d'Orcia comes from the renowned area of Montalcino, on the hills of Sant'Angelo in Colle. These vineyards benefit from a south/southwest exposure and hilly terrain ideal for producing Cabernet Sauvignon grapes of exceptional quality.

The grapes are harvested manually, allowing for a scrupulous selection of the best bunches, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Fermentation takes place in steel vats at a controlled temperature of 25°C. Followed by malolactic fermentation and aging for 18 months in medium toasted French and American oak barriques.

It has a deep ruby red color, embellished with violet reflections. The bouquet is complex and intriguing: notes of ripe fruit blend with accents of red pepper, vanilla, spices and an elegant toasted oak. On the palate the wine reveals a great structure, with a full and velvety taste.

It ideally accompanies roasts and mushroom-based dishes, as well as red meat second courses.
