Pierpaolo Pecorari Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

Venezia Giulia, Italy

Pierpaolo Pecorari Cabernet Sauvignon is a beautiful dry red wine gem from the northeast of Italy. The winery of Pierpaolo Pecorari is a typical Friuli farm, located on the plateau of Micro Terrazzo in the Isonzo wine growing region, only 9 miles from the Adriatic sea and 15 miles south of the Julien Alps. The winery is run by Pierpaolo, his wife Alba and their son Alessandro. It is 40 years ago that Pierpaolo planted his first vineyard of Malvasia, overlooking the right bank of the Isonzo River. Like his father before him, he continues to cultivate his vineyards with the most traditional care and very naturally, with no use of chemicals and herbicides.

Maceration takes place in stainless steel tanks for 10 days with dèlestage at 26/28 °C. It ages in stainless steel tanks for 10 months. Bottling and further ageing in the bottle. Food-friendly with dark berry fruit.

Enjoy Pierpaolo Pecorari Cabernet Sauvignon over the next 4-6 years with lasagne with rabbit ragout. Pork chops served with pumpkin and Taleggio cheese sauce. Trippa alla Parmigiana. Bruschetta with sausage and smoked peppers.
