The opinion of the sommelier
« I chose this wine as I think it is original and well produced. The maceration of the grapes after the harvest was made with carbonic gas, as for the Beaujolais vintages. This enables to produce wines that are cooler and rounder. You will enjoy drinking this wine with your friends! Drink it within the two next years to enjoy the fruit aromas. »
Terroir
The Domaine Lis Neris is part of the prestigious wine growing region of Friuli, located in the North East of Italy. More than sixty hectares of vineyards are planted on a gravel and limestone soil that makes the wine strong and round in mouth. The gravels make a natural drainage of the water that brings thinness to the wine.
Grape variety
Let us teach you something: the cabernet sauvignon was produced by mixing cabernet franc and white sauvignon. It produces strong wines with a lot of tannins. It is characterized by fresh red fruits aromas with hints of spices and vanilla.
Vintage
Vintage 2012 was characterized by springtime frosts followed by a huge heat wave in August. The springtime frosts delayed the growing cycle of the vineyards, but still conveyed high quality to the vintage.
A winemaker, a family
The Domaine Lis Neris respects the traditions and the nature instead of looking for selling at any price, and that is a strength for them! The entire harvest is carried out purely by hand, and that gives an excellent quality to the grape. We will certainly hear a lot about this domain in the next few years.
