Tenuta di Trinoro Description
Campo di Magnacosta was the first of our three Cabernet Franc Cru born in 2011 from an idea of Andrea Franchetti that was to enhance the characteristics of a precise terroir. Campo di Magnacosta is a 1.5-hectare parcel of river gravel and silt on the valley's bottom, where an old stream ate into a hill (Magna: eat; Costa: hillside). It was planted over 20 years ago with cuttings from a vineyard in Pomerol where Cabernet Franc has grown for three centuries.
Wine Spectator: 95 Points
This lively red is round in profile, exhibiting red fruit flavors of cherry, raspberry and pomegranate. Iron and licorice notes chime in as this gives way to dense, lightly chewy tannins on the finish.
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
The most powerful of three single-vineyard Cabernet Franc-based wines in this series is the Tenuta di Trinoro 2021 Campo di Magnacosta. Aside from the very high 16% alcohol content, this wine is also very elegant and poised with a compact and dense quality of fruit and pretty mineral tones at the back of blackcurrant, toasted chestnut husk and earthy iris root. The wine is muscle and brawn, but it also reveals pretty elegance.
