1,900 bottles of this 0.8-hectare Cabernet Franc single vineyard "Campo di Tenaglia" (at an altitude of approx. 550 metres, mainly limestone) are sold worldwide in specialist shops and on the menus of the best restaurants. An impenetrable, dark-coloured wine with a bouquet of flint, crushed minerals and some chalk. The texture is rich and opulent, but always supple with a hint of minerality. Campo di Tenaglia is one of the juiciest Cabernet Francs we have ever had in our glass. Wonderful, long final and certainly great Storage potential. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dense, intense ruby red colour with violet reflections. Very intense and fruity on the nose, ripe plums and some cassis with aromas of cinnamon and leather, underlaid with some cedar wood flavour. Very fresh and juicy on the palate with gripping tannins that appear somewhat young, final with fruit on the final." Falstaff

"The Tenuta di Trinoro 2022 Campo di Tenaglia strikes me as the ripest wine, almost sticky in texture, with chewy blackberry, spice and campfire ash flavours. This is a full-bodied wine that appreciates volume and textural richness." Wine Advocate

"The purity of Cabernet Franc fruit with seductive flavours of blackcurrant, lavender, orange peel and sandalwood. It is medium to full-bodied with firm tannins that are long, linear, fine and integrated." James Suckling

"Trinoro’s 2022 Campo di Tenaglia shows how special this site is. Bold and punchy, with terrific grip, the 2022 has a ton to offer. Beams of tannin frame a core of dark cherry, plum, pomegranate, mocha, graphite, spice and new leather. Time in the glass releases gorgeous Franc brightness, veins of salinity and notable aromatic breadth. I imagine this will be truly special in a few years' time." Vinous
