Agrolaguna 2009 Castello Festigia Red (Istria)

Country: Croatia / Castello Festigia
Variety: Red Blend Istria
Winery: Agrolaguna /

Indulgently rich on the nose and palate, this intensely concentrated blend of Cab and Syrah is full of ripe black fruit that melts into a coffee and chocolate-inflected midpalate. It’s not a dainty wine at 13.7% abv, but velvety tannins, brisk acidity and an earthy forest floor note on the finish adds balance and complexity.
