The base is pure Cabernet Franc. A very particular wine that well reflects its territory of origin. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly delivered to the winery for processing. At the beginning of the process, temperatures are deliberately kept low to facilitate colour extraction. Then, gradually, they are brought up to allow the full extraction of all the aromatic substances and tannins. After vinification, the wine is placed in small 225-liter French oak barrels, where it remains for a period of about 6 months. After bottling and before marketing, a further six months of refinement in the bottle are expected. Dark red wine with violet hues, the nose is striking for its balsamic character, with notes of vegetable, red fruits and hints of vanilla. In the mouth it is pleasantly astringent, with a good balance between alcohol and acidity.
The history of this beautiful Friulian company began in 1962, even if until 1990, the year in which the brothers Tarcisio and Luigi Durante began a profound restructuring, the company had a predominantly arable orientation. Today Tenuta Bosco Albano has rediscovered its full viticultural vocation. This is Pasiano di Pordenone, halfway between the Prealps and the Adriatic Sea. Here the approximately 40 hectares of property, closed land, enjoy a very special microclimate and favorable to the cultivation of varieties typical of the region. The estate, once made up of beech, poplar and oak woods, can count on a predominantly clayey soil, rich in marl, which hides an underground aquifer able to feed the drip irrigation of the entire vineyard.
