$44.99
This naturally farmed & vinified Tuscan Cabernet Franc offers a distinctly different expression than its counterparts in the Loire, with red and black fruit, silky tannins, and a savory, spicy backbone. Delicious already, this certainly has more than enough structure to age for years to come—wow! Food Pairing Game meats, lamb dishes, pizza

The 2019 Ampeleia (Cabernet Franc) is deep, flashy and super-expressive. In 2019, Ampeleia seems to offer a bit more volume and brooding intensity than in most years. Black cherry, mocha, dried herbs and espresso lend notable sepia-toned intensity throughout. This potent Franc is a winner. I suggest giving the 2019, and all these wines, frankly, a bit of aeration, as oxygen is so beneficial.
