Friuli Latisana Cabernet Franc DOC 2025 Zaglia

Friuli Latisana Cabernet Franc DOC 2025 from Zaglia is a red wine from the estate of Dr Giorgio Zaglia. It is made with marked varietal character, balanced between fruit, freshness and length, and matured partly in wood and partly in steel. It suits the more savoury dishes of a land-based menu. It is ruby red with light violet reflections. The bouquet is intense and distinctly herbaceous, with green pepper and freshly cut grass, followed by blueberry and blackberry, with bay leaf and liquorice nuances. The palate is pleasantly tannic, with good body and good persistence. It is ideal throughout a meal with land-based cuisine, and pairs well with gnocchi with castrato ragù.
