The Cabernet Riserva DOC Lafot 2021 is an outstanding wine that impresses with its remarkable quality and depth. Its deep red color already hints at the power and concentration within. On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of dark berries such as blackcurrant and blackberry, accompanied by notes of tobacco, black olive, and a subtle touch of vanilla. This grape variety is known for its thick skins and firm tannins, which provide structure and aging potential. These qualities are particularly well-expressed in this Riserva, giving the wine exceptional depth and complexity.

What makes this wine special is its maturity and elegance. The Riserva designation, which requires extended aging in barrel and bottle, enhances the wine’s finesse and harmony. This aging process further refines its drinkability and develops a broader spectrum of aromas and flavors. Typical of both the wine and its region is the balance of optimal climate conditions, a distinctive terroir, and the winemaker’s expertise. The result is a wine of the highest quality that authentically expresses its origin.
