Garda Cabernet Sauvignon Falcone

The work in the vineyard is the what makes the difference in this wine. With a very low yield, averaging 40-45hl/ha, La Prendina managed to achieve the optimal concentration of taste and flavors that ensures a long bottle aging. The process at the wine cellar consists in a traditional red vinification with a long maceration; the wine is then aged for a long period in small barrels. The Falcone vineyard was born at the same time with the estate and creates a faithful example of the expressivity of Cabernet Sauvignon. Herbal notes are backed by silky tannins and excellent structure.     Certified by "SQNPI" (Italian Quality System of Integrated Production).
