Russiz Superiore, Collio DOC (Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy) Cabernet Franc 2022 ($35, Dalla Terra)

Jan 15, 2025

Wine label

It seems like we are seeing a greater variety of varieties being produced across the width of northern Italy, and this Cabernet Franc is an interesting variation – a hint of cream going into an almost red berry flavor that seems unusual for this grape but which is nevertheless quite enjoyable with its tartness, herbal notes, and light tannins.
