Velvety, deep reds with a dark robe and round tannins, showing aromas of blackberry, plum, ripe red pepper, dark chocolate, coffee and gentle spice. Warm, supple finish. Absolute star of Chile (Colchagua, Cachapoal, Maipo) where it was rediscovered in 1994, long confused with Merlot. A historic Bordeaux variety that nearly vanished after phylloxera, a cross of Cabernet Franc × Gros Cabernet.
Italy's only DOCG straddling Veneto and Friuli (Venice and Pordenone), clay-gravelly soils. Tai (Tocai Friulano, ≥85%) is the signature autochthonous white — dry and elegant with intense notes of almond, pear, white peach, white flowers and a characteristically slightly bitter mineral touch, round palate and refreshing finish. The Classico designation reserved for the historic core. Heritage of the Venetian Doges.
