Tenuta di Trinoro Description
This wine hits the palate with exuberance, full of fleshy, bright fruit, extracted tannins, and rich color. The blend of the four grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, changes every year with the respect to the vintage. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in one to three year-old barriques and cement, Le Cupole is velvety and approachable.
Blend: 56% Merlot, 26% Cabernet Franc, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
The 2021 Le Cupole (a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot) is the well-priced entry-level red from one of the most prolific and creative wine estates in Tuscany. Le Cupole is velvety and full-bodied with dark fruit, dried cherry and sweet earth or terracotta. This is an incredible value. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, and the wine is matured in neutral barrique and cement. Drink: 2023-2035.
