Villa Sandi Cabernet Sauvignon Venezia 2022
Cabernet Sauvignon Venezia DOC by Villa Sandi winery in Veneto is an intense ruby red dry wine, with hints of small fruits of the forest, in particular raspberry, with a flowery sensation of violets and delicate pink pepper.
The flavour is dry, flavoursome, with an agreeable touch of tannin. Its fruity flavour is persistent and the finish slightly herbaceous.
How is the wine made?
After pressing, the grapes are put into fermenters for maceration of the must in contact with the skins
for 8-10 days at a controlled temperature of 28-30°C. Pumping over is carried out in this stage to
extract the colour and tannins from the skins. The alcoholic fermentation is also completed in this
period, while after racking it is transferred into steel containers for malolactic fermentation.The wine
remains in the tanks to age for at least 8-10 months before being bottled. Only after at least three
months of ageing in the bottle the wine is ready to be marketed.
