CABERNET FRANC

CABERNET FRANC  più grintoso e spigoloso – BUCOVAZ

Ask for a Cabernet around the world, and you’ll get a Sauvignon. But walk into a rustic tavern in Friuli, and you’ll be served the original: Cabernet Franc—no surname needed.

Whether “Franc” means frankness or points to French roots, it doesn’t matter. This grape has found its true identity in Friuli, where it flourishes with character.

In the glass, it shines a bright ruby red. On the nose, it defies the expected pepper notes, instead offering ripe raspberry, blackcurrant syrup, and roasted tomato. A signature twist: a light ethereal tone, almost reminiscent of nail polish.

On the palate, it’s easygoing, with soft, delicate tannins, a wine that’s effortlessly drinkable, yet far from ordinary.

Best enjoyed with something rustic and real—like a salami sandwich in the company of good friends.
