Vinum panel tasting about the wine

Villány PDO Cabernet Franc
La Trinitá 2019
94 Points | 2026 to 2035
Subtle, quite earthy and spicy fruit with pine cones, a hint of raspberry in the background, plus a hint of redcurrant with fresh almonds, chervil, and some subtle wood spice. A rich, compact style of freshness, strong grape tannins and distinct nuttiness to the aromas on the nose. The slightly citrusy, refreshing acidity balances the power of this exciting, bold style wine.
