Made with biodynamic and organic fruit, the Duemani 2019 Cabernet Franc CiFRA is a bright and articulate entry-level wine from this top-level estate. The grape is left to speak for itself, as the wine sees very little meddling or intervention back at the winery. Most of the winemaking process is done in cement vats, and you taste the purity of the grape skins and juice as a result. Dark cherry and blackberry segue to tilled earth, dried oregano and cola. The results are fresh, tight and vertical.
Lots of fun and delicious raspberry, light basil-leaf and walnut character. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a well poised, fruity finish. No wood. All in cement. From biodynamically grown grapes.
The 2019 CiFra, 100% Cabernet Franc, is an attractive, mid-weight wine done in a style that exalts freshness. Even so, there is plenty of the natural richness that makes Maremma so compelling. Rose petal, cinnamon and sweet red berry fruit are nicely lifted throughout. CiFra is done with shorter macerations than the flagship wines, aged in cement and bottled before the following harvest, all decisions taken keep the flavors vibrant. That certainly works here.
