Descrizione

The Cabernet Sauvignon of Cantina Erzetiĉ is born in carefully tended vineyards located in a suitable area, where the territory expresses a perfect harmony between climate and soil, fundamental elements to enhance this international grape variety. The wine presents itself with a deep ruby color intensity, a precursor of a dense and complex structure. On the nose, a rich bouquet emerges, combining scents of ripe forest fruits, green pepper, and light herbal notes, typical characteristics of Cabernet Sauvignon. On the palate, it reveals well-integrated tannins and balanced acidity that give the wine elegance and longevity.

The aging takes place in wood, giving the product an enveloping softness and light spicy notes of vanilla and tobacco. Perfect to accompany red meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses, this Cabernet Sauvignon of Cantina Erzetiĉ is an authentic expression of the terroir, able to combine power and refinement in every sip.

Winery history

The Erzetič family has been in Višnjevik for centuries: the family estate has documented historical roots dating back to 1725 and in recent decades has been revitalised by the younger generations. The winery blends the traditional heritage of terraced vineyards with investments in the cellar and projects to transition to ecological practices.

Production philosophy

The approach combines respect for the land with contemporary techniques: careful viticultural practices, stainless-steel vinification for fresh wines, and selected ageing in oak barrels and large buried amphorae to express terroir and longevity.

Terroir and vineyards

Situated in Višnjevik, Goriška Brda, the estate cultivates terraced vineyards on soils rich in marls and laporti, with flysch formations. The microclimate is influenced by the proximity of the Adriatic Sea and alpine currents, factors that contribute to the minerality and acidity typical of the local wines.

Awards and recognitions

The winery has received recognition in international competitions; public listings include medals at the Decanter World Wine Awards for some labels, including the Rebula in some editions.
