The Felix Anton Red Cuvée DOC 2022 from Baron Longo is a modern red blend from South Tyrol based on Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The vineyards around Neumarkt benefit from a warm climate influenced by alpine conditions, supporting balanced ripening and precise aromatic expression. Calcareous soils contribute to the wine’s structure and depth.
Cabernet Sauvignon provides fruit, structure, and tannins, while Cabernet Franc adds freshness, elegance, and subtle spice. In South Tyrol, these varieties show a more refined and less opulent style than in warmer regions, with a balanced interplay of ripeness and vibrancy. The result is a structured yet approachable wine with a clear sense of origin.
In the glass, it displays a deep ruby red color. On the nose, it reveals aromas of blackcurrant, dark berries, and light spice. On the palate, it is balanced and structured, with well-integrated tannins, fresh acidity, and a harmonious, medium-length finish.
