Fantinel Borgo Tesis Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is defined by precision, balance and polished structure. The wine showcases Cabernet’s classic dark fruit profile, enhanced by Friuli’s freshness and aromatic clarity. Rather than heaviness, it delivers controlled depth, smooth texture and elegant persistence, making it versatile at the table and rewarding in the glass.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby with brilliant clarity. The nose opens with blackcurrant, ripe plum and dark cherry, layered with subtle herbal notes, cedar and delicate spice.
On the palate, the wine is smooth yet firmly structured. Dark berry fruit and gentle savoury nuances unfold across a polished frame, supported by fine, velvety tannins. Hints of cocoa and soft oak spice add depth, leading to a lingering, elegantly dry finish.
Food Pairing
This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with grilled steak, roast meats and hearty pasta dishes. Its structure and tannin profile also complement aged cheeses and slow-cooked dishes, where richness meets refinement.
Description
