Omina Romana - Cabernet Sauvignon IGT 2015
Red Wine from Lazio, Italy
Profile:
Bright ruby red
Profound and wild bouquet, intense notes of ripe red fruits, Mediterranean scrub, cinchona bark, rhubarb and fern, which build upon a warm, mineral base
Very powerful with an intense, soothing freshness. The lovely, velvety tannin bolsters and intensifies the lasting, warm finish with pronounced volcanic nuances
Food Pairing: Flavourful pastas and red meats as well as for cured meats and salami
What’s In It: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
How It Was Made:
Manual harvest with bunch sorting and destemming, followed by a very light crushing. The must thus obtained undergoes cold pre-fermentation maceration for about 48 hours. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, with subsequent maceration on the skins for 10-15 days. Malolactic fermentation, carried out in oak barrels, is followed by a maturation period of about 12 months in second-passage French oak barrels, performing bâtonnage. After blending it ages at least 12 months in bottle.
