Red Wine Cabernet Sauvignon Garda DOC S. Cristina ZENATO

Produced with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, it has a beautiful intense and dense ruby red colour.

The nose is complex, rich and persistent; there are notes of red fruit, ripe fruit, jam, with a hint of vanilla, spices and a very light, as pleasant, herbaceous nuance.

On the palate it is dry, full, with a pleasant harmonious tannic vein that makes it a great wine for ageing.
