Dalle Ore Cabernet Franc 528Hz Bio 2015

Dalle Ore Cabernet Franc 528Hz Bio 2015 is an elegant, certified-organic red from the rolling hills of Veneto, Italy, crafted in a refined, quietly expressive style. This single-varietal Cabernet Franc combines Italian finesse with the grape’s classic aromatic charm, offering a wine that feels both distinctive and deeply drinkable. The “528Hz” reference hints at a holistic, harmony-driven approach in the cellar and vineyard, reflecting Dalle Ore’s commitment to balance, purity and respect for nature.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2015 Cabernet Franc shows a deep ruby core with subtle garnet reflections at the rim, revealing its maturity while retaining vibrancy. The nose is inviting and layered: wild raspberry, ripe redcurrant and black cherry unfold first, followed by floral notes of violets, hints of dried herbs, green peppercorn, tobacco leaf and a gentle touch of cedar and graphite. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a refined, linear structure. Juicy red and black fruits are framed by lively acidity and finely chiseled tannins, giving both freshness and grip. Savory undertones—dried herbs, a slight bell pepper nuance typical of Cabernet Franc, and subtle earthy tones—add depth and complexity. The finish is long, dry and mineral-tinged, with a lingering echo of spice and dark berries. Well-stored bottles of the 2015 still have several years of life ahead, drinking beautifully now but continuing to evolve gracefully over the next 3–5 years.

Production
Sourced from organically farmed vineyards in Veneto, Dalle Ore’s Cabernet Franc grows on mixed clay and limestone soils that naturally limit yields and concentrate flavor. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, with rigorous selection in the vineyard to ensure only healthy, perfectly mature clusters make it to the cellar. Fermentation typically takes place in temperature-controlled tanks using a gentle extraction to preserve aromatic finesse rather than sheer power. The wine is then aged—often in a mix of neutral vessels and older barrels—to integrate tannins and develop complexity without masking the grape’s varietal character or the subtle imprint of the local terroir.

Food & Serving
This Cabernet Franc is a versatile partner at the table, particularly with Mediterranean and Northern Italian cuisine. It pairs beautifully with grilled lamb chops, roast pork with herbs, ragù-based pasta dishes, wild mushroom risotto, charcuterie, and aged semi-hard cheeses like Asiago or Pecorino. Serve at 16–18°C (60–64°F) to highlight its aromatic complexity and refined structure. Decanting for 30–45 minutes before serving helps the wine open up fully, softening the tannins and allowing the spice, floral and herbal notes to emerge more clearly.
