About the Wine:
A single site, certified organic 100% Cabernet Franc. The grapes are all estate grown and come from a 10-hectare plot which lies in the middle of the rugged Bocca di Lupo estate. The vineyard sits at 300 metres above sea level on calcareous-tuff soils, and experiences exceptional diurnal temperature swings. Arso falls under the Puglia IGT appellation and the inaugural vintage is the 2020, released in summer 2024.

Tasting Notes:
Dark red in colour, deep rather than heavy, but bright and glistening in the glass. Some vanilla pod on the nose immediately backed up by black and blue fruit. It’s smooth, succulent even with no rough edges. It’s fluid, but not crunchy, if anything it lacks that bite of some Cabernet Franc wines. There’s an abundance of fruit though; black cherry, blackberry, and a delicious lifted note of oregano on the finish. Polished and more-ish, super with food.
