Bordeaux grandeur meets South Tyrolean clarity: Mumelter Cabernet epitomises this encounter in its purest form. Named after the south-facing Mumelterhof farm near Bolzano, where weathered porphyry soils and a sub-Mediterranean microclimate at an altitude of 330 metres allow the international varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc to develop to their full potential. This cuvée of two Bordeaux classics combines the best of both worlds: the structure and power of Cabernet Sauvignon with the elegance and finesse of Cabernet Franc.

The result is a dark ruby red colour with violet reflections. Blackcurrants and blackberries dominate the bouquet, interspersed with cranberry notes and fine pepper accents, while subtle roasted flavours elegantly incorporate the wood maturation. The palate experiences pure Bordeaux class: powerful and intense, yet characterised by captivating elegance and harmony. This is where cellar master Stephan Filippi's skill in the art of assemblage comes to the fore – a Riserva that combines international class with alpine precision. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dense, impenetrable purple-red colour with violet reflections. Multi-layered nose with cedar wood in the foreground, followed by spices with finely balanced plum. Slightly greenish on the palate with pleasant tannins, has potential." Falstaff

"Fragrant redcurrant and blueberry fruit, underlaid with mint and violets; creamy and structured with silky tannins and a refreshing finish." Decanter
