Cabernet Sauvignon: the international soul of great Italian reds
The Cabernet Sauvignon collection gathers some of the most authoritative interpretations of this grape variety in Italy, where elegance, structure, and aromatic depth meet territories of extraordinary identity. From Tuscan and Bolgheri reds to expressions from Alto Adige, this selection is designed for those seeking intense, complex wines capable of evolving over time.
In the glass, Cabernet Sauvignon is recognized for its clear profile of black fruits, fine vegetal notes, spices, graphite, and a tannic structure that supports important and long-lived wines. This collection features iconic labels such as Ornellaia, Antinori, Sassicaia, Ca’ Marcanda - Gaja, Castello dei Rampolla, Argiano, and Brancaia, along with many other prominent names in the Italian landscape.
Territories and style
Many of the bottles present come from areas that have made Cabernet Sauvignon the protagonist of great Italian red wines, particularly Bolgheri and Toscana IGT, but also denominations such as Alto Adige DOC and other regions where the grape finds balance between maturity, freshness, and aromatic precision. This variety of origins makes the collection ideal for discovering how Cabernet Sauvignon changes its face depending on soil, climate, and production philosophy.
Alongside single-varietal wines and more classic interpretations, there are also important blends where Cabernet Sauvignon interacts with other Bordeaux varieties, giving rise to wines of great personality. This is the case with famous labels such as Tignanello, Solaia, Guado al Tasso, Darmagi, Orma, Solengo, and Oreno, which tell a contemporary and refined Italian interpretation of the international blend.
When to choose it and how to pair it
The wines in this selection are perfect for those who desire a characterful red to bring to the table on important occasions or to leave in the cellar for a few years. Cabernet Sauvignon expresses itself best with structured dishes: grilled red meats, braises, game, roasts, but also aged cheeses and preparations rich in flavor. The fresher and more linear versions also pair well with sliced meats and flavorful Mediterranean dishes.
This collection is designed for enthusiasts, collectors, and those looking for a gift with a strong impact, thanks to the presence of prestigious labels, large formats, and sought-after vintages. If you want to explore the nobler side of Cabernet Sauvignon in Italy, here you will find a selection crafted to offer quality, identity, and great tasting pleasure.
