DUGAL Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot IGP 2021 - Tinazzi

From the Ca 'de' Rocchi line, the flagship of the company, comes this equal blend of cabernet sauvignon and merlot aged in 5 and 10 hectolitre barrels for about a year. The name of the wine, Dugal, derives from the behavior of the two vines that every year try to excel one over the other, like “two roosters in the hen house”. Dugal has a dense and almost impenetrable purplish ruby color, a decisive and captivating olfactory texture, with references to dog rose, plums, blackberries and blackcurrant jam, tones of cocoa, licorice, cardamom, contained references to sweet and toasted wood, memories of cinchona and vegetal nuances. The taste is energetic, rich, the tannin already integrated, the softness and sweetness of the fruit prevails but the acidity provides the necessary shoulder to balance it. A wine not particularly complex but very faithful to the characteristics of the two grape varieties.
