The 2014 Cabernet Franc Duemani is a profound and penetrating wine that reveals a very dark and captivating side of this mighty red variety. Cabernet Franc is showing spectacular results along the Tuscan Coast and this expression by precise vintner Luca D'Attoma is a prime example. What makes this wine so special is that it reaches such a high level of quality despite the difficult vintage. Despite the challenges, the grape seeds showed perfect ripening following a heat spell at the very end of the growing season. Luca adjusted the oak aging (down to 22 months of barrique) to compensate for mature fruit. There is a wild side to the wine with black fruit and spice, but the effect is softly succulent and rich on the palate.
