From the best clay and stony soils of the Tuscan coast, on which Duemani has begun one of the most forward-looking and experimental projects of the district, comes this very interesting expression of Cabernet Franc. A biodynamic wine, which spontaneously ferments in concrete and stays there to age, and is this extraordinary winery's style's calling card.
Ruby with some purple reflections, which is also a sign of the youth of the alberello vines, Cifra has a precise and unique nose, with hints of blueberry and Mediterranean scrub dotted with memories of the sea with its salt and iodine. The background, herbaceous and vegetal, also recalls juniper berries, undergrowth and dried mushroom. The territoriality of the Pisa Coast is also felt on the palate, and in the Cabernet Franc reveals Luca D'Attoma and Elena Celli's true workhorse by.
Big temperature fluctuations and sea breezes produce a full-bodies wine, decidedly prone to softness and fruit, which does not mean that it is lacking in interesting mineral and savoury elements. All in all, it's juicy and soft, with a sweet but balanced tannin, which leaves a very long peppery and jammy finish.
