Palazzotto is the name of the two hectares of vineyard where only Cabernet Sauvignon is grown. Fausto Maculan vinifies a fine wine from these grapes. A spicy start in the glass: cedar wood and ground ginger give way to dusty roses and redcurrants. It's elegant yet refined, with creamy textures lifted by vibrant acidity, while a wave of mineral-tinged wild berries lightly wash over the palate. Leaves a tart note of citrus and raspberry and subtle, grippy tannins that frame the wine without slowing its momentum. Although already showing very well now, this beautifully balanced version of Palazzotto should improve even more with medium-term cellaring. SUPERIORE.DE

"The flavours of blackcurrant, dark tobacco and mint are very attractive. Medium-bodied with integrated tannins and a solid, minty finish." James Suckling

"The 2021 Palazzotto is a dark and sombre expression with rich concentration and plenty of baked blackberry and plum. The wine shows a taut phenolic bite with firm tannins and extra padding to build drive and texture. Abundant structure, sweetness, intensity and concentration place this wine on the bolder side of the Italian red wine spectrum." Wine Advocate

"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Palazzotto is dark and rich in the glass, mixing plum and cherry sauce with sweet sage, spice, and shavings of dark chocolate. It's pleasantly round with soft textures, licorice-tinged wild berry fruits, and a wave of savory spice that adds contrast. An inner mentholated herbal resonance creates lift and an airy quality. This finishes long and structured with fine tannins that frame the experience beautifully." Vinous
