This single barrique has been treasured and aged an extra year for those who love Cabernet Franc in purezza, “in purity” as the Italians say.

ultima pietra rosso 2019

LIMITED AVAILABILITY

Ultima Pietra is composed of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, united since late autumn 2019 so today in full amalgam.

The color is soft for its category, the ruby red reveals a warm and welcoming character.
The nose is a chorus that starts with fresh strawberry but quickly the more subtle, complex shades emerge-- blood orange, coffee and pipe tobacco invite you to drink. The sip is clean, precise, and enveloping. The structure and the gustatory stratification are elongated by a vibrant acidity.

Currant, mulberry, rose, and juiciness begin the gustatory analysis which then continues to more serious notes: licorice, toasting and spices. It is a wine with excellent length and a "gastronomic" character.

ultima pietra Rosé 2023

SOLD OUT

The colour is bright, with a light coral pink tonality.

Elegant and captivating on the nose, Gemina reminds of us of wild strawberries, pomegranate, and rose petals, with an energizing citrus mandarin profile.

The wine has a delicate but vibrant entrance, tiptoeing in, then a round mid-palate with subdued notes of almond and a beautiful touch of wild jasmine. The finish is a crescendo of red currant and grapefruit. A beautiful minerality underlines in each sip, asking for the next... a very dangerous wine indeed.
