Cabernet Franc

Braida Santa Cecilia

Wine characteristics Cabernet Franc

One of the best of Friuli’s red wines. When quickly fermented with the peel, resulting in an easy to drink wine, intense and herbal, with a lovely grape flavour.
After a long fermentation the wine is round, full bodied, tannic and rich of aromas. It ages very well.

Recommended with Cabernet Franc

Young: with cold meat dishes.
Aged: a good companion to toast, game, seasoned dishes and aged cheeses.

Serving temperature Cabernet Franc

16-18 °C; 60-62 °F
