CLIO CICOGNI REGINA DI BASTONI 2022

The Cabernet Franc Naturale by Clio Cicogni, aged in amphora, offers a unique sensory experience that celebrates the purity of the variety and the ancient winemaking tradition. This wine embodies the encounter between modernity and history, combining the natural expression of the grape variety with the mastery of aging in amphora, a method respectful of the environment and ancestral traditions.

The Cabernet Franc grapes, carefully selected from the vineyards, are handled with extreme delicacy to preserve their integrity and the authenticity of the terroir. Once pressed, the must ferments naturally without the addition of selected yeasts, allowing the flavors and natural aromas of the grapes to fully emerge. After fermentation, the wine is gently transferred to terracotta amphorae, where the aging process begins. The amphorae, with their porous walls, allow for controlled micro-oxygenation. During this aging period in amphora, the wine develops a unique complexity, enriched with notes of ripe fruit, subtle spices, and an elegant minerality. The mouthfeel is silky and enveloping, with soft tannins and a lively freshness that enhances its longevity and drinkability.

A wine to be enjoyed slowly, shared with friends, and appreciated in every moment of contemplation and conviviality.
