Here is a very successful interpretation of Trinoro's signature wine style. The 2011 Tenuta di Trinoro is mostly Cabernet Franc (90%) with Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot in reduced background roles. This very warm vintage saw no Merlot used in the blend. This wine truly stands out. It is expressive and endowed with an important sense of drama and darkness The fruit comes forth in ripe, chewy and slightly sweet waves of intensity with blackberry preserves, cherry compote, spice and pipe tobacco. The wine shows great density and structure. The tannins are thick and broad in formation.

Probably Andrea Franchetti's favourite among the first six. 100% Cabernet Franc. 12 different pickings. Very hot year. 55-degree days. Very dark crimson. Lovely freshness and lightly herbaceous. But the sweetness compensates. Marked acidity on the end and with a slightly green edge. Glossy and very well balanced. Slightly drying on the end. Needs lots of time. Edgy.
