Capezzana Barco Reale di Carmignano Red Blend 750 mL
SKU
658674
Good depth of ruby red colour, with intense, fruity perfumes of cherry and plum, given an extra dimension by a touch of oak. On the palate, it is rounded and ripe, with a lovely balanced fruit and tannin structure, and a long, elegant finish with a hint of spiced dark berry fruit.
Barco Reale is a younger version of the Carmignano from Capezzana, as the fruit is sourced from slightly younger vines in the same vineyards. Fermentation lasted seven days in temperature-controlled vats. Maceration took place in stainless steel tanks and lasted for seven days. The wine was matured in 25 hectolitre Allier oak barrels for 12 months before bottling, followed by three months in bottle before release.
