Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc
Marciliano is one of the greatest expressions of Cabernet from Central Italy. It has a profound dark purple color and offers complex aromas of cassis, herbs, tobacco and slate. Layers of blackberries and licorice are evident on the nose and on the palate, while the chewy tannins frame an austere yet elegant and dense structure.
Long-lived and full-bodied, Marciliano is best-served with rich meat-based dishes. A great wine for Cabernet lovers.
"The 2004 Marciliano (70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Cabernet Franc) is made in a similarly powerful, structured style as the Montiano. Unfortunately it doesn't have that wine's core of fruit and I don't see it ever becoming an especially generous wine. The Cabernet Franc character is also surprisingly absent in this wine. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016. "
