Description

The Cabernet IGP Vitiano by Falesco is born in the heart of Umbria, in an area suitable for the cultivation of international grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. This blend, balanced and intense, benefits from the temperate climate and the calcareous-clay soils, which give structure and character to the wine.

The winemaking method, carefully detailed, includes aging in French oak barriques, which imparts complexity and harmony to the aromatic bouquet. On the nose, there are scents of ripe berries, spicy notes, and slight vegetal hints typical of Cabernet. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a persistent finish that invites tasting.

Perfect paired with grilled red meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses, this Cabernet IGP Vitiano by Falesco best expresses the richness and elegance of an Umbrian territory with a continuously growing wine tradition.

Winery history

The winery was founded by brothers Renzo and Riccardo Cotarella with the aim of restoring the historic vineyards of Alto Lazio and developing a modern winemaking project. Over time the business has expanded with vineyards and operational facilities between Montefiascone and Montecchio, giving rise to the group now also identified by the Famiglia Cotarella brand.

Production philosophy

Research and enhancement of the local heritage, combined with the use of modern winery technology: production balances a focus on native varieties with the use of international grape varieties for some flagship wines.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are spread across the area between Lake Bolsena, Montefiascone and Montecchio/Orvieto; the estate operates on land located on the border between Lazio and Umbria.
